Items related to Memory and Intelligence
This volume represents the results of a major inquiry by Jean Piaget and his colleagues into the complex interactions between memory and intelligence. Introducing a number of new experimental facts as well as their theoretical underpinnings, the authors illuminate the operations of intelligence upon the ways perceptions not only are formed but also are conserved. Through the analysis primarily of the child's capacity for remembering additive and multiplicative logical structures, and his remembrance of causal and spatial structures, the authors investigate whether memories pursue their own course regardless of the intelligence or whether, in specified conditions, mnemonic improvements may be due to progress in intelligence. They examine the relationship between the memory's figurative aspects (from perceptive recognition to the memory-image) and its operational aspects (the schemata of the intelligence) and stress the fundamental significance of the mnemonic level known as the reconstructive memory. Memory Intelligence is a pioneering work that presents illuminating conclusions drawn from extensive research, together with a number of constructive ideas which open up a fresh approach to an important area of educational psychology.
