Current Research:	Development and application of a theory of distinctive processing in memory (e.g., Hunt, 2003). Error correction in memory using a variety of test environments and the effect of feedback on both propagation of correct responses and on the correction of errors in those test environments. Evaluating theories of implicit memory and priming on their ability to predict priming for very low frequency category instances.
