Below is a link to a medical study done supporting the theory that humans order and retain information in story form. The article appeared in Medical News Today. The experiment was conducted to see if people would break down information into bite size chunks to help process it. Specifically they tested for what they call "event structure perceptions". The test subjects naturally broke down the information into smaller chunks or events. Much like stories are broken down into segments making it easier to remember the various points. Here is the link.
