Postman, Leo; Gray, Wayne – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
The method of transfer learning was manipulated in a study of proactive inhibition. Results suggest that the joint recall of two lists during transfer increases list differentiation and reduces competition between alternative sets of responses on the retention test. (Editor/RK)

Dean, Jeffrey; Ley, Ronald – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This research has three purposes: 1) to determine whether subjects instructed to study silently in a free-recall experiment engage in associative encoding, 2) to test the validity of associative ability as an individual difference variable, 3) to test for an interaction between presentation rate and associative reaction time. (Editor/RK)

Hunt, R. Reed; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
The extent to which an orienting activity exerts control over the encoding process was studied. Two experiments were reported in which associative meaningfulness was varied under conditions of semantic and nonsemantic processing. Both experiments showed effects of meaningfulness following both semantic and nonsemantic tasks. (Author/MH)

Tatum, B. Charles – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Tests two theoretical accounts of imagery on paired-associate learning. These two theories, differentiation theory and mediation theory, have been proposed to account for the finding that stimilus imagery/concreteness is an important variable in paired-associate learning. (Author/RK)

Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
These experiments focus upon two assumptions of the levels of processing formulation: that context provides exclusive control over the qualitative nature of encoding, and that amount recalled is determined both by cue-trace compatibility and by depth. The results cast doubt upon the validity of each assumption. (Author/MH)
