This study attempts to discriminate between 2 theories about strategies Ss use when trying to remember a linear ordering. (Editor)

Study investigated the nature of the information that is available to Ss when they have comprehended linguistic materials. (Authors)

This paper suggests that although there is reasonable evidence to support that portion of the Collins-Quillian theory of semantic memory which hypothesizes that words are ordered hierarchically in memory, there is little evidence in support of their hypothesis of cognitive economy of storage in memory.

Biased and unbiased ambiguous sentences, paired with either an expected'' or unexpected'' second sentence, were presented to 80 Ss for judgments of compatibility. The results supported the conclusion that only one meaning was derived for both types of ambiguities during initial comprehension processing. (Author)

Main findings of a previous study are confirmed in that the matrix mode of representation, as actually used by Ss, again leads to significantly better performance on all problems except those where information was presented in terms of negative statements. (Authors)

Study failed to yield evidence that performance in a systematic-concept task can be significantly facilitated, in comparison with rote-task performance, if more time is allowed for the operation of what Metzger has called systematic concept formation. (Authors)

The present article attempts to discover if learners can use three higher order transitions between subunits- to extend structures made of right-branching trees, to elaborate a tree by adding substructures, alternating responses from the two subsystems. (Author)

Primary purpose of this study was to investigate the processes underlying simple mental multiplication. (Author)

Evaluation of two components of transfer--response learning and associative learning--was accomplished by comparing the recall method with the multiple-choice method. (Author/CB)

Methods used in the present study confirm that rejection latencies are a reliable index of certain strategies adopted in processing prose. (Author)

The similarity match took longer than the identity match, and the difference in latency increased as the number of lines in the pattern increased. (Author)

Results of these five experiments span serial pattern learning, perception of sequential patterns, and coordinated motor skill. (Authors/CB)

Results indicate that Ss expectancy for a given test stimulus probability, has its effect on the encoding or decision stage of the memory-scanning process. (Authors)

Both acquisition and retention were better when the hierarchy was learned graphically rather than as a list of associations, although the effect was greater on acquisition than on retention. (Authors)

Article deals with an encoding variability view of retention. (Authors)
