Date15 May 2008
DescriptionCertificate of Candidate for Election to the Fellowship
CitationFergus Craik is one of the world's most eminent cognitive psychologists. His original contributions to experimental and theoretical study of human memory are universally acknowledged. His seminal 1972 article, with Robert Lockhart, now a classic, which introduced the fundamental concept of "levels of processing," was revolutionary in its impact on how researchers think about memory processes today. His "processing" orientation to the study of memory has been accepted not only in cognitive psychology, but also in neuropsychology and cognitive neuroscience in general. In addition, Craik is one of the world leaders in the area of adult age changes in memory functioning.
