The paper reports on an Australian study comparing two methods of teaching a word recognition reading task to eight mildly retarded adolescents. One method involved incidental learning, while the other involved a more structured paired-associate approach. It was found that all eight Ss learned a short list of tool names equally well under either…

Taylor, Arthur M.; And Others – 1971
Twenty-four educable mentally retarded children (10 to 15 years old) were randomly assigned to one of three treatment conditions (repetition-control, verbal context, and imagery) to determine the effects of elaboration on paired associate (PA) learning. Data from performances on two lists supported the hypothesis that elaboration in the form of…

Stein, Joan Lerner; And Others – 1973
Investigated were the effects of type of strategy training, intersession interval, and a posttraining reminder cue on paired associates learning for 57 educable mentally retarded elementary school children. Ss were assigned to one of four training conditions (sentence mediation, visual imagery mediation, combined sentence and imagery training, or…

Stein, Joan Lerner; Budoff, Milton – 1973
Compared were performances of 39 educable mentally retarded (EMR) Ss, mean chronological age (CA) 11 1/2 years, mean mental age (MA) 7 3/4 years; 25 fifth graders matched on CA; and 27 second graders matched on MA to determine whether children of different ages and IQ spontaneously demonstrate learning strategies after repeated practice with…
