The 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 کاملPaired-associate learning, phoneme awareness, and learning to read.
We report two studies examining the relations among three paired-associate learning (PAL) tasks (visual-visual, verbal-verbal, and visual-verbal), phoneme deletion, and single-word and nonword reading ability. Correlations between the PAL tasks and reading were strongest for the visual-verbal task. Path analyses showed that both phoneme deletion and visual-verbal PAL were unique predictors of a...
متن کاملA Forgetting Model for Paired-Associate Learning
This paper presents a Markov model for paired-associate learning which is based on conclusion drawn from experimental studies of short-term memory. Learning of paired-associates is considered as a decrease in the probability of forgetting an association between trials. The ability of the model to account for experimental results is demonstrated by considering data from two experiments involving...
متن کاملFunctional neuroanatomy of successful paired associate learning in Alzheimer's disease.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the study was to develop a strategy for functional imaging of neurodegenerative disorders that overcomes confounds associated with differential performance between patient and comparison groups. METHOD Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to examine responses to increasing difficulty of visuospatial paired associate learning in 12 patients with mild probable...
متن کاملTests of Acquisition and Retention Axioms for Paired-associate Learning
Several alternative interpretations of all-or-none processes for paired-associate learning and concept formation are examined. These models, along with three linear models, are applied to data from eight paired-associate learning experiments. The principal analyses involve goodness-of-fit tests for observed response sequences and conditional probabilities. The results favor a three-process mode...
