Powell, George D.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
In the present study an attempt was made to investigate the duality of encoding mechanisms via instructional sets that were independent of stimulus characteristics. (Author)

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…

Lawless, Harry; Engen, Trygg – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Sought to elucidate the nature of odor memory by applying paradigms from verbal learning and semantic memory and to investigate two processes affecting paired-associate performance. (Author/RK)
Descriptors: Charts, Experimental Psychology, Experiments, Learning Processes
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)

Tatum, B. Charles – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Tests two theoretical accounts of imagery on paired-associate learning. These two theories, differentiation theory and mediation theory, have been proposed to account for the finding that stimilus imagery/concreteness is an important variable in paired-associate learning. (Author/RK)

Reynolds, James H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Tulving and others (Tulving, 1974; Tulving & Madigan, 1970) have distinguished two kinds of forgetting of verbal information: trace-dependent forgetting and cue-dependent forgetting. Attempts to determine which type occurs in retroactive inhibition of free-recall learning. (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)
