Peer reviewedAnderson, Daniel R. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1972
Data were interpreted as suggesting that incidental learning may not be cumulative over trials, but rather, may be due to memory of the last trial. (Author)

Peer reviewedHale, Gordon A.; Piper, Richard A. – Developmental Psychology, 1973
These results suggest that, for the purpose of measuring children's incidental learning, materials with integrated components such as color and shape are functionally different from stimuli with spatially independent components. (Authors)

Stevenson, Harold W.; And Others – Child Develop, 1970
Seventy-three subjects tested at grade 4 were retested at grade 7 on five tasks. In addition, 138 seventh graders were tested on these tasks for the first time. Using performance at grade 4 to predict performance on different tasks at grade 7 often was more satisfactory than using seventh-grade predictors. (Author/WY)

Findings suggest that humor facilitates the recall of incidental but not intentional learning. (MB)

Peer reviewedDixon, Paul N. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1978
The locus of control of subjects may be the confounding variable affecting the acceptance of motivational cues in intentional-incidental (INT-INC) learning studies, and thus the reason for conflicting results in "funneling effect" (leaning toward intentional learning as a function of motivation) experiments. 96 female college students selected for…

Peer reviewedWheeler, Richard J.; Dusek, Jerome B. – Child Development, 1973
Study is an investigation of the effects of an attention-focusing variable--spatial separation of central and incidental cues--and a cognitive strategy factor--verbal labeling of central cues--and their interaction on the incidental learning of Ss younger than those previously tested with these manipulations.

Results illustrate that instructions to use imagery facilitate the intentional and the incidental learning of both normal and educable retarded children. (Authors)

One hundred and eight kindergarten and elementary school children, 36 at each of three age levels (5, 7, and 9 years) participated in the experiment. All children were presented a three-part successive discrimination task; original learning, presentation of incidental stimuli, and a test of recongition and recall of the incidental material.…

Hagen, John William; Zukier, Henry – 1977
This study investigated the effects of distractors on children's task-relevant (central) and task-irrelevant (incidental) recall on a short term visual memory task involving pictures of familiar animals and household articles. The effect of mode of distractor (auditory or visual) and the effect of developmental level were also studied. Subjects…
