An application of the mnemonic keyword method to the acquisition of a Russian vocabulary. American Psychologist, 30, 821–828.Ītkinson, R. Mnemotechnics in second-language learning. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.Ītkinson, R. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. Indeed, many variants of the classical method of loci (see Lieury, 1980 Yates, 1966) were developed to facilitate the study of arithmetic, astronomy, anatomy, botany, geography, history, music, and physics. The modern history of mnemotechnics has also been guided by a concern for educational relevance, leading to successive improvements of many techniques. Lullé and later famous mnemonists, such as Lambert Schenkel (1547–1630), were excellent public performers who strongly believed that mnemonic systems could be of practical value in the study of academic subjects. We have some reasons to expect this study technique to have been invented some time between the epoch of the first celebrated modern mnemonist, Raimond Lullé (1236–1315), and the end of the 19th century. In this first section, we briefly examine the historical origin of the mnemonic keyword method.
The basic principle underlying this technique consists of associating the unfamiliar word with a familiar word that is physically similar to it. The keyword method is a study technique devised to help people remember unfamiliar vocabulary items.
