Rowe, Edward J.; Paivio, Allan – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1971
Descriptors: Discrimination Learning, Imagery, Verbal Learning, Word Frequency
Jacoby, Larry L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Investigation is concerned with the nature of the memory representation that serves as a basis for frequency judgments. (Author)
Descriptors: Context Clues, Discrimination Learning, Memory, Sentences
Underwood, B. J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Results of these experiments are evaluated in conjunction with the hypothesis that frequency information is a dominant attribute in recognition decisions. (Author/MB)
Descriptors: Data Analysis, Discrimination Learning, Learning Theories, Memory
McCormack, P. D.; Swenson, Amy L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
The usual finding of superior recognition memory for rare items was observed. (Authors)

Effects of Frequency of Presentation and Stimulus Length on Retention in the Brown Peterson Paradigm
Fuchs, Alfred H.; Melton, Arthur W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1974
The principal objective of this research was to examine the interelations of degree of learning, length of to-be-remembered (TBR) units, and retention interval, with particular reference to the concept of "intraunit interference". (Author/RK)
Descriptors: Experimental Psychology, Memory, Nouns, Psychological Studies
Hodge, Milton H.; Pennington, Florrie M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
Three experiments are described which were designed to explore the usefulness of the three principles of abbreviation and to examine the effects of certain stimulus variables. (Authors/CB)
Descriptors: Abbreviations, Construction (Process), Language Usage, Letters (Alphabet)
Rowe, Edward J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Results showed that imagery and frequency factors have independent and additive effects in verbal discrimination learning. (Author)
Descriptors: Data Analysis, Discrimination Learning, Imagery, Learning Processes
Ornstein, Peter A.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Major purpose of the experiments was to use an instrumental response to study the form of semantic generalization gradients obtained following single-cue and discrimination training procedures. (Authors)
Descriptors: Conditioning, Cues, Data Analysis, Responses
Paul, Hadassah – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Frequency theory of verbal discrimination learning holds that the correct and incorrect alternatives of each word pair acquire differential frequencies. (Author/MB)
Descriptors: Data Analysis, Discrimination Learning, Performance Factors, Relevance (Information Retrieval)
Bach, Mary Jean – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1974
One hundred twenty-eight Ss were presented 150 words for study, followed by a two-choice recognition test. (Editor)
Descriptors: Experimental Psychology, Psychological Studies, Research Methodology, Retention Studies
Dewing, Kathleen; Hetherington, Paul – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1974
The aim of the present study was to extend the findings relating to the role of imagery in verbal learning and retrieval to the solution of anagrams. (Author)
Descriptors: College Students, Experimental Psychology, Imagery, Psychological Studies
Vlek, Charles; Werner, Hans H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
The purpose of this study was to investigate, both empirically and theoretically, the manner in which human Ss (might) learn to estimate relative frequencies of nine different outcomes of an uncertain event on the basis of a random sequence of event occurences. (Author)
Descriptors: Cognitive Ability, Cognitive Processes, Comparative Analysis, Experimental Psychology
Saba, Anton K.; Turnage, Thomas W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
The unit-sequence interference hypothesis predicts that sequences of high-frequency words should be forgotten faster than equivalent sequences of low-frequency words, because of opportunities for response competition that increase with word frequency. (Authors)
Descriptors: Data Analysis, Interference (Language), Memory, Recall (Psychology)
Cole, Lawrence E.; Kanak, N. Jack – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Descriptors: Associative Learning, Discrimination Learning, Recall (Psychology), Responses
Holborn, Stephen W.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
In the present study, acoustic similarity and word frequency were varied and their effects independently assessed on free-recall-learning (FRL) and paired-associate-recognition (PAR) tasks. (Author)
Descriptors: Acoustics, College Students, Diagrams, Experimental Psychology
