Cohen and Squire (1980) conducted research on memory and learning, specifically focusing on the distinction between declarative (explicit) and procedural (implicit) memory. In their experiments, they had participants learn to read words presented in mirror image format, which is a task that taps into procedural memory as it involves learning a new skill (reading mirrored text) rather than recalling specific facts or items.
