Peer reviewedKausler, Donald H.; Puckett, James M. – Journal of Gerontology, 1980
Study replicates and extends the results obtained by Attig and Hasher (1980) in finding null effects for adult age variation and instructional variation on a relative frequency judgment task. Finds nonsignificant covariation for both young and elderly adults between judgment proficiency and paired-associate learning proficiency. (Author)

Compared were performances of 39 educable mentally retarded (EMR) Ss, mean chronological age (CA) 11 1/2 years, mean mental age (MA) 7 3/4 years; 25 fifth graders matched on CA; and 27 second graders matched on MA to determine whether children of different ages and IQ spontaneously demonstrate learning strategies after repeated practice with…

Peer reviewedKennedy, Stephen P.; Suzuki, Nancy S. – American Educational Research Journal, 1977
Noun-pair learning in twelfth graders was assessed as a function of ethnicity, I.Q., and instructional conditions. Learners instructed to generate sentences performed better than control group learners. The relationship between instructional conditions and I.Q. was significant, but ethnicity was not. Spontaneous elaboration is discussed as a…

Stinnett, Ray D.; Prehm, Herbert J. – 1969
Rote learning and retention performance was studied as a function of method used in original learning and as a function of intellectual level. Sixty educable mentally retarded and 60 mentally normal junior high school students were randomly selected and assigned to one of three treatment groups, each learning to a different criterion, for each…

Rohwer, William D., Jr.; Levin, Joel R. – 1970
The major emphasis of this study is on the comparative validities of paired-associate learning tests and IQ tests in predicting reading achievement. The study engages in a brief review of earlier research in order to examine the validity of two assumptions--that the construction and/or the use of a tactic that simplifies a learning task is one of…
