Analyzing Memory Effects in Large Language Models through the Lens of Cognitive Psychology

Z. Cao, L. Schooler, et al.

Memory is adaptive but fallible — and this study finds that cutting-edge language models echo many human memory quirks. Using classic human-memory paradigms, the authors show LLMs display list-length and list-strength effects, associative interference, DRM-style false recognitions, and cross-domain generalization, while differing in order sensitivity and resilience to nonsense. This research was conducted by Zhaoyang Cao, Lael Schooler, and Reza Zafarani.
