Anderson, Dennis L. – 1972
An examination of models which have been employed in making predictions about the interference effect is made. It is pointed out that investigators mainly have relied upon the paired-associate model borrowed from classical studies in the field of verbal learning. This basic paradigm, represented as A-B, A-C, A-B, has produced fairly consistent…

Kennedy, Stephen P.; Suzuki, Nancy S. – American Educational Research Journal, 1977
Noun-pair learning in twelfth graders was assessed as a function of ethnicity, I.Q., and instructional conditions. Learners instructed to generate sentences performed better than control group learners. The relationship between instructional conditions and I.Q. was significant, but ethnicity was not. Spontaneous elaboration is discussed as a…

Knafle, June D.; Legenza, Alice – American Educational Research Journal, 1978
Results varied as a function of : (1) type of task (transfer, paired associate, or visual discrimination); (2) student age (kindergarten, first grade, or college); (3) stimuli size; and (4) number of response indicators. Research findings cannot be generalized from artificial orthographies to the English alphabet or from various aged subjects to…

August, Gerald J.; Rychlak, Joseph F. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1978
Fifth-grade children prerated both abstract and concrete nouns for likability, and paired-associate lists were constructed by pairing nouns. High self-concept children learned liked noun pairs more efficiently than disliked pairs, while the low self-concept children learned disliked noun pairs more readily. These self-concept patterns were most…

Williams, Joanna; And Others – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1973
In these studies, authors sought to examine the role of mode of presentation in a verbal learning task, within the context of age-grade differences in two social groups. (Authors/CB)

Zacks, Rose T. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Findings showed that the different conditions of acquisition produce equivalent long-term retention. (Author/MB)

Izawa, Chizuko – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
A new hypothesis is proposed to account for both superior and equal performances under the study-test method as compared with the anticipation method. (Author)

Wolff, Peter; And Others – 1972
The generation of dynamic mental imagery is known to facilitate paired associate (PA) learning in older subjects. Wolff and Levin (in press) have reported that children who were apparently too young to generate mental imagery of this kind did benefit from self-generated motoric interactions involving pairs of toys. Since the result was obtained…

GROTELUESCHEN, ARDEN – 1967
AN ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO ASSESS THE EFFECTS ON ADULT LEARNING OF DIFFERENTIALLY STRUCTURED INTRODUCTORY COGNITIVE LEARNING TASKS AND MATERIALS, AND THE INTERACTION OF INTELLIGENCE WITH THE EXPERIMENTALLY MANIPULATED MATERIAL AND TASK CATEGORIES. ABOUT 96 ADULTS WHO WERE UNFAMILIAR WITH THE CONCEPT OF NUMBER BASES WERE CLASSIFIED ACCORDING TO A 4X3X4…
