structure affects recall. The activation is automatic and implicit because knowledge of previous experience is being utilized unintentionally during the study and testing phases. This occurs without awareness of the effects that this activation produces on performance. The associ!
             ates of a target word are activated during the study and although the task usually requires target recall, recollection of these associates is not intentional and is not required. The results found that words with smaller sets of associates but whose associates are highly interconnected are more likely to be recalled.
             In an experiment conducted by Thapar and Greene (1994), tested the effects of level of processing on implicit and explicit tasks for word fragment completion. Explicit tasks are usually conceptually driven, relying on meaningful information extracted from stimuli. Implicit tasks involve identification and completion and tend to be data-driven and are affected by the extent of perceptual processing carried out on the stimuli. They pe
