The present study was conducted to explore directly the effects of pronunciation on the frequency-meaningfulness relationship. (Author)

A psychology course which uses original experiments to test about research design and validity is described. (DE)

A laboratory course in experimental physiological psychology and animal behavior is described. (DE)

Four experiments, all employing the conditioned suppression of licking in thirsty rats, examined the extent to which reinforcement of one component, A, of a compound conditioned stimulus, AB, would "block" conditioning to the other element, B, on the first compound trial. (Editor)

The purpose of the present study is to test an explanation for the actor-observer phenomenon which is derived from a focus of attention-causal attribution notion. (Author)

This study investigates attributions based on behavior congruent with situational demands (in-role) and those based on behavior incongruent with situational demands (out-of-role). (Editor)

The experiments reported here attempted to examine the processing demands during a directed forgetting operation and to permit a comparison between pupillary response and secondary task performance as indexes of information processing. (Author/RK)

Two new experimental operations were used to distinguish between auditory and phonetic levels of processing in speech perception: the first based on reaction time data in speeded classification tasks with synthetic speech stimuli, and the second based on average evoked potentials recorded concurrently in the same tasks.

The recall of picture and word triads was examined in three experiments that manipulated the type of distraction in a Brown-Peterson short-term retention task. (Editor)

The purpose of the present experiments was to investigate the effects of backward masking on differential eyelid conditioning. (Author)

The purpose of the present experiment was to examine the effects of input variation upon recall performance in relation to two specific issues derived from the perceptual regrouping hypothesis. (Author)

The principal objective of this research was to examine the interelations of degree of learning, length of to-be-remembered (TBR) units, and retention interval, with particular reference to the concept of "intraunit interference". (Author/RK)

In two experiments, Ss judged a stimulus person on three dimensions: Generosity, Gift Size, and Income. Judgments on each dimension were based on information about the remaining two dimensions presented in a 4 x 4 design. (Editor)

The present study investigated directly the perceiver's selective control over the processing of hypercapacity verbal or pictorial inputs. (Author)

Serial anticipation and serial discrimination learning were compared. Trials, errors, total learning times, serial position errors, and retention were examined. (Editor/RK)
