Parker, Elizabeth S.; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1976
Effects of acute alcohol intoxication on the storage phase of memory were evaluated with two tasks that minimized response retrieval: unpaced paired-associate learning with highly available responses and forced-choice picture recognition. It was concluded that storage processes are sensitive to disruption by alcohol. (CHK)

Rabinowitz, Jan; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1977
A theoretical explanation of the phenomenon of recognition failure and a presentation of seven experiments investigating performance. Recognition failure is reduced when a more stringent recognition criterion is used, essentially eliminated when the proper access test is used and significantly reduced when variability in recognition performance is…

Corbett, Albert T. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1977
Retrieval dynamics in recognition memory for paired-associates learned by rote repetition or visual imagery mnemonics are studied with Reed's response signal method. The use of visual imagery resulted in higher asymptotic accuracy as expected, but somewhat slower retrieval dynamics initially. (Author/RM)

McKoon, Gail; Ratcliff, Roger – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1979
Four experiments examined priming between newly learned paired associates through two procedures, lexical decision and item recognition. Results argue against a functional separation of the semantic and episodic memory systems. (Author/AM)
