Sullivan, Frank J.; Ross, Bruce M. – Develop Psychol, 1970
Examines Weir's hypothesis of a U-shaped relationship between age and terminal level of correct responding; studies use of alternation patterning as a response strategy; investigates extent to which immediate reinforcement controlled the subjects' choices. The results reported here are based on part of a doctoral dissertation submitted by the…

Wildemann, Donald G.; Holland, James G. – 1972
Pigeons were trained to respond to stimuli from a continuous stimulus dimension (tonal frequency) with response values from continuous response dimension. Both the number of points of correspondence and problem difficulty were varied. Following training, subjects were tested with stimulus values intermediate to those trained. During these test…

Two views of paired-associate learning were examined by assessing the paired-associate learning efficiency of eighth grade samples identified by digit span and IQ test performance as Jensen-type Level I and Level II learners. Eighty eighth grade students ranging in age from 13 years 3 months to 14 years 10 months were selected as subjects. Three…

Bean, Joan P.; Rohwer, William D., Jr. – 1969
The purpose of the document is to assess facilitating and interfering effects of various strategies in samples of children from elementary and high school grade levels. Participating in the paired-associate study were 160 children, 40 each from first, third, sixth, and eleventh grades. Subjects were required to learn a 36-item aurally presented…

Aist, Eugene H.; Gerlach, Vernon S. – 1973
Additional support to a stimulus-response (S-R) association by the use of an extraneous stimulus is called "prompting." Prompting has an effect on learner achievement particularly if the prompting agent is identical on successive S-R trials. This experiment sought to analyze the differences in learner achievement when different prompting stimuli…

Dickinson, John – 1974
Various research studies concerned with the feedback from proprioceptors which accompany movement and the way in which this information is relevant to the control of activity are brought together in this volume. It is intended for the use of those who have some basic knowledge of human anatomy and physiology as well as an acquaintance with…
