The work described below was among the first to present evidence that people (a) are variable in their strategy use, and (b) do not always attempt to search memory for a close match to the probe before electing to use some other type of question-answering strategy. Before this work was published, the accepted view was that memory would be searched for an answer before executing a "back-up" strategy such as computation or inference.
