Anderson, Roger H.; Samuels, S. Jay – 1970
The relationship between visual recognition memory and performance on a paired-associate task for good and poor readers was investigated. Subjects were three groups of 21, 21, and 22 children each, with mean IQ's of 98.2, 108.1, and 118.0, respectively. Three experimental tasks, individually administered to each subject, measured visual…

Samuels, S. Jay; And Others – 1974
The purpose of this study was to resolve the focal attention versus context controversy. Eighty first-grade and 84 second-grade children from a metropolitan school system served as subjects. Subjects in each grade were randomly assigned to each of four experimental conditions: picture-word, no picture-word, picture-sentence, and no…

Samuels, S. Jay; Anderson, Roger H. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1973
Subjects were given tests of visual memory using stimuli which were similar, but not identical, to those used in a subsequent paired-associate learning task. Scores on the visual memory and the paired-associate tasks were then used for analysis. (Author/RK)

Samuels, S. Jay – 1971
Tasks involved in paired associate learning (attention, perceptual learning, visual and auditory memory, response learning, and stimulus-response connections) are identified as some of the same skills and strategies involved in learning to read. Two studies on visual memory, the developmental lag hypothesis, and reading ability are examined to…
