Potts, George R.; Scholz, Karl W. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
Experiments were designed to estimate separately time required to encode the premises of a three-term series problem and time required to generate an answer. It appears that marked and unmarked adjectives are stored in the same form and premises are integrated into a unified representation. (CHK)

Hayes-Roth, Barbara; Hayes-Roth, Frederick – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
An adaptive network model is proposed to represent the structure and processing of knowledge. Accessibility of subjects' stored information was measured. Relationships exist among (a) frequency of verifying a test relation, (b) other relations involving concepts used to evaluate test relation, (c) frequency of verifying those relations. (CHK)

Eich, James Eric; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
Subjects were asked to encode and recall lists of words under the influences of marijuana and a marijuana placebo. Free recall was more complete when both encoding and recall were after marijuana use than in the encode-marijuana, recall-placebo state. Recall must depend on restoration of dissociated encoding state. (CHK)

Brodie, Delbert A.; Prytulak, Lubomir S. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
The hypothesis that free recall curves reflecting effects of serial position, presentation time and delay of recall are attributable to subjects' pattern of rehearsal was explored. Experiments varied the patterns of rehearsal to examine the effects on recall. (CHK)

Healy, Alice F. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
Short-term retention of temporal and spatial order information were compared using the distractor paradigm. Use of phonemic coding and coding of information about temporal-spatial patterns were interrupted to observe subject's reaction and ability to recall. (CHK)

Jastrzembski, James E.; Stanners, Robert F. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
A task required subjects to make a word-nonword decision to visually presented items--words with a high or low number of meanings or lawful nonwords. Words with several meanings produced shorter decision times, indicating that words with multiple meanings have multiple memory entries. (CHK)
