Presentation Rates in Experiments on Mnemonics: A Methodological Note.
Hall, James W.; Fuson, Karen C.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v78 n3 p233-34 Jun 1986
For simple vocabulary items, the amount that subjects can learn during a given period of study is markedly underestimated when unusually slow presentation rates are imposed. That disadvantage apparently is less when subjects use the keyword mnemonic. The use of self-pacing or of multiple-rate conditions is suggested. (Author/LMO)
