Haveman, Jacqueline E.; Farley, Frank H. – 1969
In three experiments employing 60 Ss, arousal was manipulated by white noise during paired-associate, serial, and free learning in an effort to investigate the relationships of arousal and long-term recall. Previous research suggested that high arousal in the paired-associate paradigm leads to better retention relative to low arousal. The present…

Lavach, John F. – 1971
Previous research has indicated that for discretely (paired associate) as well as continuously (sound-film) presented information, high arousal during acquisition results in poor immediate recall, but is characterized by a strong reminiscence effect. Low arousal learning results in better immediate recall with poor retention. The hypothesis that…

Osborne, John W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Results support the importance of the passage of time during learning as the crucial factor affecting high-arousal recall. (Author/MB)

Allsopp, J. F.; Eysenck, H. J. – British Journal of Psychology, 1975
Predictions based on theories of verbal learning proposed by Spence and Eysenck were compared by using a noncompetitive list of paired-associates formed from seven synonym pairs, and a competitive list formed by pairing each of the seven S words with a R word with which it was not synonymous.

Kumar, Krishna; Powers, Marjorie – 1974
Seven paired-associates were constructed using words (for which scales values on arousal were derived by paired-comparison technique) as stimulus terms and digits (two through eight) as response terms. Forty subjects were randomly assigned to one of four conditions-cued or free recall and short or long-term tests following a single learning trial.…

Hamilton, P.; And Others – British Journal of Psychology, 1972
Two experiments were performed to investigate the effects of noise-induced arousal on immediate recall of visually presented paired-associate adjectives. (Authors)

Geen, Russell G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1974
The present experiment was designed to vary observation and evaluation independently of each other in an orthogonal design. (Author)
