초록
Song has been known to have positive effects not only as a memory aid but also as a learning facilitator. The current study aims to investigate whether the format of songs will facilitate the text recall in comparison to the format of spoken in trials of immediate and delayed text recall and whether their representations are different between L1 and L2 or not. As a result, the sung text showed positive effects not only as an immediate memory aid but also as a retention of the texts in delayed time too. Although the accuracy were higher in song condition, the responding time took longer to recall the text in song condition rather than in the spoken format. These findings from the response time can serve as empirical evidence that songs are a form of text integrated with melody, so a longer time was required to recall the integrated chunk. Nonetheless the integrated unit of text and melody boosted the accuracy in recalling texts. With regard to the representations between L1 and L2, although the effects of songs in L2 were not as salient as demonstrated in L1, they showed the similar tendency between L1 and L2.
Abstract
Song has been known to have positive effects not only as a memory aid but also as a learning facilitator. The current study aims to investigate whether the format of songs will facilitate the text recall in comparison to the format of spoken in trials of immediate and delayed text recall and whether their representations are different between L1 and L2 or not. As a result, the sung text showed positive effects not only as an immediate memory aid but also as a retention of the texts in delayed time too. Although the accuracy were higher in song condition, the responding time took longer to recall the text in song condition rather than in the spoken format. These findings from the response time can serve as empirical evidence that songs are a form of text integrated with melody, so a longer time was required to recall the integrated chunk. Nonetheless the integrated unit of text and melody boosted the accuracy in recalling texts. With regard to the representations between L1 and L2, although the effects of songs in L2 were not as salient as demonstrated in L1, they showed the similar tendency between L1 and L2.
