Peer reviewedSamuels, S. Jay; Anderson, Roger H. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1973
Subjects were given tests of visual memory using stimuli which were similar, but not identical, to those used in a subsequent paired-associate learning task. Scores on the visual memory and the paired-associate tasks were then used for analysis. (Author/RK)

Perlmutter, Lawrence C.; Monty, Richard A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
The purpose of the present experiments was to further explore the role of choice by giving Ss the opportunity to choose the stimulus words rather than the response words. (Author)

This study evaluated the effects of individual differences in attitudes toward sex roles on the learning of neutral material associated with situations differing in rated sex-role appropriateness. It was hypothesized that if sexism is a valid dimension as measured in this study, then "sexists" would learn nonsense syllables associated with scenes…

Giurintano, S. L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
The chaining, position, and dual-process hypotheses of serial learning (SL) as well as serial recall, reordering, and relearning of paired-associate learning were examined to establish learning patterns. Results provide evidence for dual-process hypothesis. (DS)

Coleman, Edmund B. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1979
Presents two experiments which demonstrate that language-generalization tests should tend to decrease Type 2 errors. (AM)

Peer reviewedFreund, Joe S.; Witte, Kenneth L. – American Journal of Psychology, 1976
The present study examined the effects of two variables, association value (low, high) and length of anticipation interval (3 sec, 6 sec) on the paired-associate transfer performance of young and elderly adults in the A-B A-B paradigm. (Editor)

Direct linkHowe, Mark L. – Developmental Psychology, 2006
Improvements in 5- and 7-year-olds' acquisition and retention of related concept pairings were examined when additional similarities and differences between pair members were provided. Using a standard paired-associate learning paradigm, children learned 18 related picture pairs; some of the children either were given or produced additional…

Levin, Joel R.; Horvitz, James M. – 1970
The role of meaning in the learning of verbally presented paired associates (PAs) is described by means of an experiment with a replication. A printed PA list containing six different types of items was presented to Sixth Graders. Four of the item types consisted of sentence-embedded PAs on the study trials, followed by test trial cues varying in…

Runquist, Willard N.; Horton, Keith D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Five experiments were conducted comparing performance on paired-associate lists of stimuli that rhymed with lists of stimuli that did not rhyme. Results are discussed in terms of the role of input position cues in aiding discrimination among items. (Editor/RK)

Peer reviewedFisher, Dennis F.; Keen, Susan P. – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1972
Results failed to confirm the findings of previous investigators, which showed anal retentives to be superior in verbal recall. (Authors)

Chechile, Richard A.; Gordon, Tracey – 1976
A study was performed to investigate the storage and retrieval dynamics that occur during paired-associate acquisition by means of the storage-retrieval separation technique discussed recently by Chechile & Meyer (1976). Thirty subjects learned an 18-item paired-associate list to a criterion of three perfect trials. In the test phase of each…

The present experiment was designed to vary observation and evaluation independently of each other in an orthogonal design. (Author)
