Weber, Robert J. – 1968
The primary objective of the proposed research was to investigate the effects on learning of various stimulus-response (S-R) mapping schemes. It was hypothesized that S-R connections are not simply arbitrary, that the way stimulus and response classes are mapped together may have a profound effect on learning rate. To study this problem, two…

Hall, John F. – American Journal of Psychology, 1971
Two experiments conducted to examine the methods that have been hypothesized to characterize the learning of paired associates. (Author/MM)

Kilmer, W. L.; Arbib, M. A. – International Journal of Man-Machine Studies, 1973
A discussion of several types of formal neurons, many of whose functions are modifiable by their own input stimuli. The language of finite automata is used to mathematicize the problem of adaptation sufficiently to remove some ambiguities of Brindley's approach. (Author)

Frederick, Franz J. – Library Trends, 1971
The media center could and should be an impressive resource tool in providing information and surrogate experiences for use by the student in forming his tastes, attitudes and values. (Author/NH)

Domjan, Michael; Best, Michael R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
Analyzes the temporal features of the transient unconditioned stimulus preexposure effect observed by Cannon (EJ 123 672) and attempts to determine whether a preconditioned stimulus toxin presentation can both condition a backward taste aversion and interfere with the development of a forward aversion.

Sahin, Kenan E. – International Journal of Man-Machine Studies, 1973
A discussion of the Selcuk Network, a scheme which achieves response routing on the basis of strictly local information, pursuant to the broadcast of a general message, it has applicability to content-based addressing and to computor-to-computer communication nets. (Author)

Kumar, V.K.; Farley, Frank H. – 1975
This study examined the effects on long-term retention of variations in intensity and of temporal parameters of arousal following a single learning trial in a paired-associate task. The subjects were 56 female university students. Intensity of arousal was manipulated by using two levels of white noise--75 decibels and 90 decibels sound pressure…

Grundin, Hans U. – 1975
To test some aspects of Skinnerian programed instruction, a 241-frame program on Swedish grammar was presented to students 10 to 12 years old. Skinnerian insistence on student-constructed overt responses and on presenting the "key answer" after each frame were contrasted with covert responses and key answer frequencies less than 100…
