Bartlett, Frederic (1886-1969) | Learning & Memory |
 | | Frederic Charles Bartlett was born on October 20, 1886, in Stow on the Wold, Gloucestershire. |
 | | Bartlett instigated research into a variety of topics, including studies of the detection of faint sounds, a project in which he collaborated with Emily Mary Smith, whom he married in 1920, and studies of individual differences in how subjects described pictures. |
 | | Bartlett observed that the two methods yielded similar results: Recall was not duplicative but represented a reconstruction of the original story or picture based on memories of key details; the reconstruction could be biased by conventionalization and importation. |
