Bartlett's famous 1932 study on memory and the "effort after meaning" primarily utilized folk tales. He was interested in how people's memories reconstruct past events and information, often influenced by their cultural background and personal biases, rather than simply recalling information accurately. This approach was a departure from the use of nonsense syllables common in memory research at the time, emphasizing the constructive and interpretive nature of memory.
