This reports the effects of the number of relevant stimulus dimensions and figural versus verbal stimuli on the concept learning ability of college students. Results force a consideration of mediational variables in explaining this form of cognitive learning. A set of verbal materials analogous to a set of dimensionalized figural materials was…

The nature of the memory representation of two types of information in picture stories is examined: surface information, arising directly from pictures, and conceptual information, inferred from connecting pictures into a story. (CHK)

Dembo, Myron H.; And Others – 1969
The purpose of this study was to investigate both the relationship between verbalization and shift-learning and the possible prepotent stimulus dimensions of the eighty-four 7-year-olds used as subjects. Four pairs of two-dimensional stimuli were presented to the children, for the discrimination learning task, in the following order: large black,…

The relationship between sign and verbal learning was explored using 10 severely mentally retarded adults. They were taught color labels in sign, verbal, or sign and verbal groups. Sign labels tended to be learned more efficiently; combined sign and verbal training improved verbal learning but not sign learning. (Author/CM)

Crowder, Robert G. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1978
In six experiments subjects saw and pronounced, either aloud or silently, seven-item lists made from vocabularies of phonologically identical items. These materials were used to test the predictions of a precategorical and a postcategorical hypotheses for the modality effect in immediate memory. (Author/SW)

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THOSE WHO HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR DEVISING TRAINING PROGRAMS IN INDUSTRY BE AWARE OF THE PROCESS OF EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY AND SUBMIT NEW SKILLS TO FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS RATHER THAN IMITATE TECHNIQUES THAT HAVE WORKED IN OTHER SKILLS. THERE IS A LACK OF A SUFFICIENTLY WELL-TESTED SYSTEM OF PRINCIPLES OF TRAINING AND OF A…
