“famous psychologists who contributed to the measurement of intelligence”. In other words, it is the concept of measurement of intelligence that will be the cue, and it is the link between this concept and its keyword that you’d need to practice (as well, of course, as the image linked to

you can connect the separate passages to existing knowledge (that’s why experts are much less prone to interference when acquiring new information). However,

But list mnemonics can also help you remember the main points of a text. Even though this information is, presumably, meaningfully connected, when you are still building up your knowledge in the area it may well be that you lack sufficiently deep understanding to rely on that for memory.

building understanding requires time, and in the initial stages there is a lot that needs to be firmly tamped into your brain, before you truly, deeply, understand

the fact that it is easier to derive the keyword from the target word (go from górod ), than to derive the target word from the keyword (górod from go).

All this would seem to be clear evidence that a single integrated mnemonic should be used for related information. However it should be noted that a previous study4 by these researchers found that separate mnemonics were as effective as an integrated mnemonic when students were asked to learn four 5-sentence biographies. It may be that separate

a similar vein, a study involving 8th-grade students9 demonstrated the effectiveness of this kind of mnemonic for remembering the attributes of minerals. The students were given information about nine different minerals, and their attributes on three dimensions: hard/soft, pale/dark, home use/industrial use. Those in the mnemonic condition were

college students applied the strategy to a 1,800-word passage about historical theories of human intelligence.

this is so, it may be that the place method is best used on expository texts, the link method on narratives, and the pegword method on static visual descriptions.
