The purpose of this article was to show how Krantz's test (for threshold theories of signal detection) can be applied to examine the discrete-state assumption of the models proposed by Bernbach and Kintsch for recognition memory and to review some critical experimental data. (Author/RK)

The present series of experiments attempted to analyze more fully the contributions of stimulus-reinforcer and response-reinforcer relations to autoshaping within a single conditioning situation. (Author)

This article presents an analysis of the similarities between the stimulus familiarization effect and latent inhibition. (Editor)

Article attempted to find whether there are experimental paradigms that can be employed to determine a sensory scale that is capable of accounting for judgments of differences, ratios, and similarities. (Author/RK)

Among the objectives of the present study was the intention to replicate Spielberger and Denny's (1963) procedure with a different set of words, a different test of verbal ability, and a larger and different group of subjects. (Author/RK)

Subjects asked to recall the 20 items and (not necessarily in) their order on a list took 34 percent fewer trials to learn the list to three perfect trials than did subjects who were asked just to recall the items. (Editor)

Pairing a novel flavor with illness results in the conditioning of aversions to that flavor. This article reported a series of experiments examining the effect of several parameters of prior exposure to the illness on the acquisition of learned taste aversions. (Author/RK)

This paper describes some of the more spectacular range effects reported in the literature. (Author)

The present experiment was directed at establishing the empirical relations between re-pairing and degree of training, and between re-pairing and information about that re-pairing. (Author)

Subjects were required to predict a recurring three-element binary pattern (RLL) under continuous reinforcement or under partial reinforcement on a variable-ratio schedule. (Editor)

This study was designed to investigate the effect of individual differences in habitually preferred number of categories (PNC) on the form and interpretation of the category-recall function. (Editor)

This experiment attempted to obtain an estimate of perceptual isolation effects when the isolated item was the only distinctive feature in the list and to obtain data on continuous serial learning in order that isolation and serial-position effects could be compared directly. (Author/RK)

Although Tzeng (1973) and Bjork and Whitten (1974) have obtained positive recency effects in free recall using a procedure designed to eliminate any component of short-term storage, their procedures may not have truly cleared short-term storage. This experiment attempts to find whether positive recency would be obtained in a situation without any…

Uses new approaches to differentiate three types of models describing intuitive numerical prediction. (Author)

While incentive contrast has been reliably demonstrated in single-response situations, tests for contrast-of-choice behavior have invariably failed to obtain the effect. Three experiments were reported that eliminated features of prior methodology which can mask the effect. (Editor/RK)
