A new study found that drawing information youneed to remember is a very efficient way toenhance your memory. The researchers believe thatthe act of drawing helps create a more cohesivememory as it integrates visual, motor and semanticinformation.
“We pitted drawing against a number of other known encoding strategies, but drawing alwayscame out on top,” said Jeffrey Wammes, PhD candidate in the Department of Psychology atthe University of Waterloo.
Together, they enlisted some of the University’s students’ help and presented them with a listof simple, easily drawn words, such as “apple.” Participants were given 40 seconds in which todraw or write out the the word repeatedly. After this, they were given a filler task of classifyingmusical tones, to facilitate memory retention. In the last step of the trial, the students wereasked to recall as many of the initial words as they could in just 60 seconds.
“We discovered a significant recall advantage for words that were drawn as compared to thosethat were written,” said Wammes.
