Coleman, Natalie C. – 1977
Thirty-two intellectually superior and 32 intellectually normal fifth and sixth graders were compared on measures of attention and comprehension of complex verbal stimuli under successive versus simultaneous modes of presentation. Ss were exposed to either successive or simultaneous presentation of printed short stories on slides. Analysis of…

ANDERSON, JAMES A. – 1967
THIS EXPERIMENT SOUGHT TO DETERMINE WHETHER CONSISTENT DIMENSIONS OF JUDGMENTAL BEHAVIOR CONCERNING STATEMENTS PRESENTED IN A GIVEN MEDIUM WOULD BE IDENTIFIED WITH DIFFERENT MEASURING INSTRUMENTS, AND WHETHER THE DIMENSIONS COULD BE RELIABLY REPRODUCED IN THE DIFFERENT MEDIA. 768 SUBJECTS RESPONDED TO 1 OF 4 CONCEPTS PRESENTED THROUGH EITHER THE…

ROSENBERG, SHELDON – 1967
THIS STUDY WAS DESIGNED TO TEST THE HYPOTHESIS THAT ASSOCIATIVELY RELATED NOUNS EMBEDDED IN CONNECTED DISCOURSE--AT LEAST IN THE CASE OF ITEMS THAT APPEAR IN THE SAME OR IN CONTIGUOUS SENTENCES--ARE STORED MORE EFFICIENTLY THAN ASSOCIATIVELY UNRELATED NOUNS. A 2X2 FACTORIAL DESIGN WAS EMPLOYED (WITH 20 SS IN EACH GROUP) IN WHICH SS WERE ASKED TO…

KOEN, FRANK – 1967
THIS PAPER DEALS WITH SOME PSYCHOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF RHETORICAL FORM AND STRUCTURE. THE SUGGESTION IS MADE THAT THE FIRST CONSIDERATION IS A DEFINITION OF THE ENTITY--THE EFFECTIVE STIMULUS--TO WHICH THE S (SUBJECT) RESPONDS. THIS MEANS A SPECIFICATION OF FUNCTIONAL CONTEXT, IN WHICH THE S VIEWS A GIVEN LANGUAGE PERFORMANCE. THE PSYCHOLOGICAL…

Cramer, Phebe – 1974
If older children automatically label pictorial stimuli, then their performance should be impaired on tasks in which such labeling would increase the error rate. Children were asked to learn pairs of verbal or pictorial stimuli which, when combined, formed a different compound word (BUTTER-FLY). Subsequently, a false recognition test that included…

Ghatala, Elizabeth S.; And Others – 1975
In an absolute frequency judgment task, 130 sixth graders received either high-frequency (Hi-F), low-frequency, high-meaningfulness (Lo-F/Hi-M), or low-frequency, low-meaningfulness (Lo-F/Lo-M) words selected from the 1944 Thorndike-Lorge list. Subjects were asked to either pronounce the words aloud, listen to the examiner prounounce the written…

Tosi, Oscar – Michigan Linguistic Society, 1969
The present study, conducted at the Department of Audiology and Sciences, Michigan State University, consisted of determining the intelligibility of 648 Spanish stimulus-words arranged in a multiple-choice test of the two forms, A and B, each including 12 lists of approximately the same degree of difficulty. (Appendix.) This multiple-choice test…

Wittrock, M.C.; Hill, Claude E. – 1968
The purpose of these four studies (two pilot studies and two experiments) was to investigate the effects of verbal processes and dimensional preferences in children's learning and transfer. Experiment I investigated the effect of verbal instructions upon motor responses. Discriminate verbal instructions produced statistically significant higher…

Tucker, Dennis J.; And Others – 1973
Two groups of retarded adolescents were presented sets of multiple verbal directions (imperative sentences). One group was exposed to pictures illustrating the objects and action of each direction in addition to the verbal directions. Subjects were required to carry out performances demanded by the directions. The direction-following behavior of…

Mandler, Jean M.; Stein, Nancy L. – 1973
Verbal description, recall, and recognition of complex meaningful pictures by children were studied, varying amount of stimuli and similarity of distractors. Across subjects (sex, ethnic group, and grade level) verbal measures were poor predictors of recognition accuracy. Across stimuli, amount recalled and recognition accuracy were both related…

Hohn, Robert L.
Research on massed practice (MP) and distributed practice effects to preschool children in free recall tasks is reported. A total of 40 kindergarten children were randomly assigned to High Frequency and Low Frequency word groups. No significant differences were found between the two groups on the dimensions of IQ and age. Lists of 32 high…

Hayes, Donald S.; Rosner, Sue R. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1975
This study examines the phonetic effect and retention of preschoolers who were presented with a differential picture-matching task of phonetically similar and unrelated lists, under a condition in which verbal components of the task were emphasized and under a condition in which the children engaged in overt, cumulative rehearsal.
