Knowledge structuring and representation in learning based on active recall (Wozniak)
Narrowing by example
Narrowing by example is a very efficient way of making the question-related stimulus more specific and thus more successful in imprinting durable memories.
The concept of the price ceiling may be enhanced if a narrowing example of goods that might be subject to government imposed price ceiling is provided. Moreover, the example makes the definition of price ceiling more specific; hence the increased likelihood of diminished complexity of the synaptic pattern, and minimization of pattern extraction.
Q: What is the name of the price specified by the government above which goods cannot be sold (e.g. medications)?
A: price ceiling
In the example above, the phrases "(e.g. medications)" serves as the means of narrowing by example. Similarly, the illustration of competitive nature of pork versus beef helps narrowing by example in the definition of horizontal markets:
Q: What is the name of markets for products that can act as substitutes (e.g. pork and beef markets)?
A: horizontal markets

Knowledge structuring for learningpeared to produce very coherent memory engrams that showed above average retention rate despite the inherent intractability of numeric responses (as in the first of the two presented examples). <span>Narrowing by example Narrowing by example is a very efficient way of making the question-related stimulus more specific and thus more successful in imprinting durable memories.
