English term or phrase: global-matching model
In order to test whether the representations underlying familiarity can be episodic, participants were exposed to stimuli that should not have pre-experimental representations, pseudowords and nonwords. The first two studies found evidence of recognition without identification for pseudowords and nonwords, a result that is inconsistent with views proposing familiarity only arises from existing representations. The third study found evidence that recognition without identification for words, pseudowords, and nonwords is stronger when study and test modality match. These results are interpreted within the framework of GLOBAL-MATCHING MODELS of recognition memory, which claim that familiarity arises from the matching of test items to episodic representations in memory.

universal matching effect model
Explanation:
Global Matching is a technical term is the field of psychology, and there are different models that use this idea/theory of learning/understanding evaluations.

The term global is another way of saying universal, that exists in all or most cultures, and types of people independent of other factorts.

I believe that the matching refers to matched effects or correlations.

THIS ARTICLE, and this particular small section, makes it clear that this is a technical term:

"However, there are
several alternative explanations for associative category
length effects, which do not rely on Global Matching, that
we will address in the ‘‘General discussion”.
Global similarity: the within-category choice advantage
The within-category choice (similar distractor) advantage
refers to the superior discriminability observed for
forced-choice test alternatives comprising a same-category
distractor."
