Schmeck, Ronald R; Spofford, Mark – Contemporary Educational Psychology, 1982
An investigation was undertaken to determine whether highly aroused (e.g. highly anxious) students are handicapped with regard to their ability to learn through deep processing and elaboration. The hypothesis that well-developed deep and elaborative habits of thought might counteract the disruptive effects that excessive arousal has upon students…

Jones, Beau F.; Hall, James W. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1982
Two questions were addressed regarding the utility of the keyword method, originally developed as an instructional technique to facilitate foreign language vocabulary acquisition: (1) the method's applicability to other common school learning tasks; and (2) students' use of the method as a self-initiated study strategy.

Papineau, William; Lohr, Jeffrey M. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
Recall performance on a paired-associate learning task was investigated as a function of word imagery modality (visual or auditory), presentation mode (visual or auditory), and sex. Analysis showed greater recall of visual imagery words, and the results are consistent with Paivio's (1971) conceptual-peg hypothesis. (Author)

Cramer, Phebe – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1981
The effects of neutral, separate, and interactive imagery instructions on the learning performance of first and fifth graders were compared for both single-item and paired-associate tasks. Results revealed that both younger and older children using images did show facilitation, compared with those not using images. (Author/GK)

Ehri, Linnea C.; Wilce, Lee S. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1979
Mnemonic value of spellings in a paired-associate sound learning task was examined in first and second graders. Learning was fastest when correct spellings were seen or imagined. The preferred interpretation was that spellings are effective because they provide readers with orthographic images for symbolizing and storing sounds in memory.…

Abed, Farough – Canadian Journal of Educational Communication, 1992
Describes a study of undergraduates that explored the technique of progressive disclosure of information as a type of interactive illustration using paired associates. Noninteractive stimuli versus progressive stimuli are compared, and progression as a technique that provides a visual link to help create a semantic link and facilitate memory is…

Cargin, J. Weaver; Maruff, P.; Collie, A.; Masters, C. – Brain and Cognition, 2006
Mild memory impairment was detected in 28% of a sample of healthy community-dwelling older adults using the delayed recall trial of a word list learning task. Statistical analysis revealed that individuals with memory impairment also demonstrated relative deficits on other measures of memory, and tests of executive function, processing speed and…

Cook, Gabriel I.; Marsh, Richard L.; Hicks, Jason L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2006
Five experiments were conducted to address the question of whether source information could be accessed in the absence of being able to recall an item. The authors used a paired-associate learning paradigm in which cue-target word pairs were studied, and target recall was requested in the presence of the cue. When target recall failed,…
