The differential effects of studying for recall and recognition tests were studied by means of a transfer experiment. The 48 subjects learned three lists of paired associates with either all recall tests or all recognition tests and then were transferred to a fourth list with either the same test or the other test.

The effects of vocalized tests on paired-associate learning were compared with those of silent tests and of blank trials by using six conditions, each repeating a pattern of six cycles including one study trial. (Editor/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)

Article investigated the mechanisms determining proactive inhibition in associative recall. (Author/RK)

The present experiment was addressed to the study of one aspect of nonspecific transfer, namely, whether the processes involved in the test trails during acquisition are related to subsequent nonspecific transfer. (Author)

Ninety six second graders each had three study/test trials with picture/picture or picture/word associates. Article investigated their responses. (Author/RK)

This experiment tested the hypothesis that attenuation of attention would be a direct function of lag and whether certain manipulations within the context of a self-paced study procedure would allow for an interpretation of the superior recall of distributed versus massed items by way of that hypothesis. (Author/RK)

Barrett, Maier, Ekstrand, and Pellegrino in 1975 reported relatively large drops in performance from the criterion trial to an immediate retention test using a study-test free-recall paradigm. The present experiment was designed to determine whether this criterion fall was associated with the use of a retrieval strategy involving short-term…

In a list presented for study, the successive occurrences of a repeated item may appear either in adjacent or nonadjacent list positions. This research attempts to determine the relative size of this spacing effect, either for massed-presentation items (MP) or distributed-presentation items (DP), in long-term tests of retention as compared to that…

This paper is concerned with word-recognition processes when the recognition test includes associates of the to-be-remembered words presented earlier. (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)

The present research involved the free-recall transfer paradigm where some subjects have had prior experience with a part of the test list while others have not. (Author)

Tests the hypothesis that when a "control for size" is introduced, preference for rectangles near the golden section reemerges. Also focuses on the "measure of preference". (Author/RK)

The present experiment was designed to test two alternative hypotheses of the roles of input order and semantic structure in determining the effect of blocked presentation and the general facilitation of recall. (Author)
