interference in memory

During learning, intervening activities inhibit learning retention {interference, memory}|. Newer items occupy memory. Later learning also affects memory consolidation. Interference effects happen only for verbal items learned transiently, not for facts and procedures. Interference effects happen only for items learned successively, not for longer time intervals. Echoic memory can exhibit interference. Iconic memory does not exhibit interference.
