A crucial aspect of human memory concerns the ability to retrieve analogous situations whoseindividual objects do not resemble those of the cues (distant analogs). Recent studies using acued-recall paradigm suggest that distant analogs are more frequently retrieved thandisanalogous situations that maintain a small set of object similarities with the cues (objects-only matches). In the first experiment of the present study, one condition had a distant analogcompete in long-term memory with an objects-only match involving a higher number of objectsimilarities than in prior research. In another condition, the distant analog competed in memorywith a situation whose individual objects and first-order relations resembled those of the target(R+O matches), but yielded partial structural similarities that were insufficient for projectingmeaningful inferences. Experiment 2 replicated this procedure with distant analogs whosesimilarity with the target only became apparent at higher levels of abstraction. In bothexperiments, retrieval rates of distant analogs were similar to those of objects-only matches,lower than those of R+O matches, and lower when competing against R+O matches thanagainst objects-only matches. These results bear important implications for the current debateabout the adequacy of our memory systems for the prospects of analogical transfer.
