McCormack, P. D.; Swenson, Amy L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
The usual finding of superior recognition memory for rare items was observed. (Authors)
Descriptors: Data Analysis, Memory, Predictor Variables, Task Performance
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)

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)

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
Dominowski, Roger L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Results were interpreted in terms of an initial tendency for Ss to guess in order of frequency followed by a change to guessing words at the appropriate frequency level. (Author)
