Depictive representation

|
a theory proposed by paivio that memory is served by two systems, one that is specialized for verbal stimuli, and the other that is specialized for objects and events that are represented non-verbally

proposed to account for the results of some imagery experiments that states that participants unconsciously use knowledge about the world in making their judgments.

visual imagery
