This study investigated the effect of verbal reinforcement (verbal approval contingent upon correct responses) upon the intelligence test performance of normal college students. (Author)

This study investigated the effects on black and white children of observing black and white models of the interaction of the variables with apparent reward magnitude. (Author)

The present investigation examines the effects of three different quadratic cue-criterion function forms upon single-cue learning. (Author)

The present experiments, conducted on two different populations of bilinguals, were designed to differentiate between two positions. Specifically, a demonstration of negative transfer could be interpreted as support for some form of interdependence of storage. (Author/RK)

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of comparison levels (standards of achievement), test anxiety, and ongoing self-reported affect to performance on a classroom type complex verbal learning task. (Author)

Tests were made of the effects of conceptual associations among words, a type of associative relationship not previously manipulated, on verbal discrimination learning. (Editor)

One aim of the present study was to discriminate among three models relating dreams and daydreams together and the revelation of distinct styles of daydreaming. (Author/RK)

This paper had three aims: 1, to make more widely known two methods of assessing recognition, one based on ranking and the other on rating, 2, to describe three experiments comparing the two methods, and 3, to give a preliminary account of the results of some theoretical calculations. (Author/RK)

Perceptual differences were investigated between 50 college students who were non-drug users and 50 hippies who used LSD. The major hypothesis predicted was that hippies would score differently from college students in a specific direction on each of the perceptual tasks. (Author)

A model of the response process based on signal-detection theory (Tanner & Swets, 1954) was used to analyse PI effects in three different tests of short-term memory. (Editor)

The serial recall of visually presented words which were either read aloud (voiced) or read silently was examined in 3 experiments. (Editor)

The major question addressed in the present article was whether frequency experienced through a natural language activity, such as reading textual material, influences subsequent verbal discrimination (VD) learning in the same manner as that which has been demonstrated for other types of familiarization, e.g., free-recall learning - Underwood &…

Position effects in multiple-trial free recall were examined for subjects who learned three successive lists under one of two instructional conditions. (Editor)

The present experiment sought to investigate the hypothesis that exposure to nonhostile humor would be highly effective in reducing the level of aggression subsequently evidenced by angry individuals. (Author/RK)

This article reports one- and two-year follow-up studies of 67 phobic children who were between the ages of 6 and 15 at intake. (Author)
