(United Kingdom 1886-1969)

Professor of Experimental psychology at the University of Cambridge in the 1930s and 40s, Bartlett is known for his 1932 book on memory entitled Remembering, in which he showed that recall is not reduplication but rather reconstruction.  Bartlett developed the concept of schema to account for the conventionalisation of accounts which occurs with repeated recall.
