E-grāmata: Conversation Memory: Comprehension, Representation, and Social Context

'This book provides an historical account of the study of conversations. The scope of the text is broad, addressing relevant research on conversations across a wide range of topics in psychology both basic and applied. Conversation is the heart and soul of human experience, and Gamst's work captures this.' Kathy Pezdek, Professor of Psychology, Claremont Graduate University, USA, 2025 'How we encode, store, and use information from conversation is an understudied topic across disciplines. In Conversation Memory, Gamst takes what has been historically siloed cross-disciplinary literature and produces a coherent and timely work that will be of great value to anyone interested in the understanding of conversation.' Andrew J. Guydish, Assistant Professor of Psychology, University of La Verne, USA 'Although it is hard to believe that it has been over 40 years since the inception of this book, it is not difficult to believe that it is a labor of love. With that said, I think that this book will be valuable to both current and early career researchers in the area of memory for conversation for several reasons. Advanced scholars can make use of the extensive list of references and the summaries of research and theory outside their areas of expertise. Students and researchers at the start of their careers will find it useful for those same reasons, but also for the description of theoretical controversies and areas of future research.' Joel S. Freund, Associate Professor Emeritus, University of Arkansas
