Associative transfer in verbal paired-associated learning.
Associative transfer was explored in the A-B, A-C and A-B, A-Br paradigms under three levels of stimulus similarity using an A-B, C-D control comparison. Three groups, differing in degree of structural similarity, learned two mixed lists of CVC trigrams by the anticipation method. A total of 90 sixth grade Ss were used. The effect of paradigms was highly siAnificant, with both the A-B, A-C and ...
متن کاملThe role of meaningfulness in paired-associate verbal learning.
A series of investigations (4, 5, 6, 7, 8) has been concerned with identifying and quantifying some of the variables which determine performance in verbal learning. In the first of these studies, Noble (4) developed a rational scale of meaningfulness (m) consisting of 96 dissyllabic nouns and paralogs ordered in terms of frequency of continued written associations in 60 sec. The m scale meets t...
متن کاملThe production effect in paired-associate learning: benefits for item and associative information.
In five experiments, we extended the production effect-better memory for items said aloud than for items read silently-to paired-associate learning, the goal being to explore whether production enhances associative information in addition to enhancing item information. In Experiments 1 and 2, we used a semantic-relatedness task in addition to the production manipulation and found no evidence of...
متن کاملAge related-changes in the neural basis of self-generation in verbal paired associate learning
Verbal information is better retained when it is self-generated rather than when it is received passively. The application of self-generation procedures has been found to improve memory in healthy elderly and in individuals with impaired cognition. Overall, the available studies support the notion that active participation in verbal encoding engages memory mechanisms that supplement those used ...
متن کاملTemporal associative processes revealed by intrusions in paired-associate recall.
Although much is known about the factors that influence the acquisition and retention of individual paired associates, the existence of temporally defined associations spanning multiple pairs has not been demonstrated. We report two experiments in which subjects studied randomly paired nouns for a subsequent cued recall test. When subjects recalled nontarget items, their intrusions tended to co...
