Semantic Processing and Serial Learning by EMR Adolescents.

Peer reviewed

Glidden, Laraine Masters; Warner, Darcey A. – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1985

The study used the semantic strategy of stories linking to-be-remembered items and a serial-recall requirement with 27 educable mentally retarded adolescents. In comparison to control subjects, Ss recalled more in the early trials of original learning, but retention after eight months was comparable for the two conditions. (Author/DB)
