ABSTRACT

The model used in the present study (Figure 43) is a simple spatial or physico-spatial configuration, and hence resembles the models we have used to investigate the remembrance of transitive and associative relations (Chapters 5 and 6). However, the behaviour of the liquids in the two U-tubes can also be given a causal, in addition to a logical or spatial, significance. This poses the problem of whether or not the remembrance of the model depends to some extent on the explicative structuring of the memory.
