Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Research has indicated that interference produced by the sharing of sensory features of paired-associate stimulus words was not eliminated by processing the pairs at the meaning level. These experiments were intended to extend the range of conditions under which the sensory interference effect might persist, and to incorporate the findings within…

Davis, Richard G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
Two paired-associate (PA) learning studies observed the acquisition performance of 85 college students with either odors or abstract figures as stimuli and numbers as responses. (Editor)

Wicker, Frank W.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1978
Attempts to help specify the boundary conditions for use of the recognition-recall method, i.e., recall made conditional upon recognition, and to use this method to evaluate a hypothesis about stimulus-concreteness effects with low-meaningful responses. (Author/RK)

Runquist, Willard N. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1978
Nelson, Brooks, and Wheeler (1975) found that interference effects produced by physical similarity among word stimuli in paired associates result from the disruption of contact with the functional stimulus and that interference with associative retrieval is minimal. Data in this research challenge their conclusion on several grounds. (Author/RK)

Runquist, Willard N.; Horton, Keith D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Five experiments were conducted comparing performance on paired-associate lists of stimuli that rhymed with lists of stimuli that did not rhyme. Results are discussed in terms of the role of input position cues in aiding discrimination among items. (Editor/RK)
