Allen, Gordon A.; Arbak, Christopher J. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1976
The priority effect being studied is higher first-list than second-list recall induced by the absence of an immediate test on the first list. The hypothesis that this effect is caused by the subject's expectation of a later test was tested in this experiment. (Author/RM)

Wike, Edward L.; Church, James D. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1976
Clark's arguments for treating language materials as random rather than fixed effects are examined, and the problems with random effects designs and approximate statistical tests (quasi F-ratios) are reviewed. It is suggested that researchers use fixed factors. (Author/RM)

No differences were found between the two procedures. (SW)

Tested the hypothesis that individual differences in immediate-verbal-memory span predict success in second-language vocabulary acquisition. In the two-session study, adult subjects learned 56 English-Finnish translations. Tested one week later, subjects were less likely to remember those words they had difficulty learning, even though they had…
