REPETITION AND VERBAL LEARNING
British Journal of Psychology, 1965An analysis is developed of the possible consequences of presenting for learning an item amongst others in a list, and a hypothesis is generated about the factors determining which of these outcomes will occur. A technique for measuring the effect of repetition is described and discussed.

A Statistical Description of Verbal Learning
Psychometrika, 1952Free-recall verbal learning is analyzed in terms of a probability model. The general theory assumes that the probability of recalling a word on any trial is completely determined by the number of times the word has been recalled on previous trials. Three particular cases of this general theory are examined.

Development of Verbal Selective Learning
Developmental Neuropsychology, 2007Using incentive-based auditory word recall we studied the efficiency of selective learning in children ages 6-18 years. We found effects of age for both selective learning efficiency and for total words recalled, which differed in developmental trajectory.

Cautiousness and Verbal Learning in Adulthood
Journal of Gerontology, 1978Twenty-two young (age 17-21)and 22 old (age 60-74) men and women participated in an investigation designed to determine the extent to which age differences in omission errors and performance in a serial learning task are accounted for by cautiousness.

Verbal learning in Alzheimer's dementia
Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 2003Many recent findings in Western countries suggest that episodic recall is the most sensitive discriminator between patients with mild Alzheimer disease (AD) and the normal elderly, while semantic memory tends best to differentiate between moderate and severe AD patients.

A learning of object structures by verbalism
Proceedings of the 9th conference on Computational linguistics -, 1982In this paper an attempt of learning by verbalism is shown in order to create the models for ancidentification of unknown objects. When we expect a computer to recognize objects, the models of them must be given to it, however there are cases where some objects may not be, matched to the models or there is no model with which object is compared.

Speech Monitoring and Verbal Learning
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1963The effects of interference with auditory feedback on two verbal learning tasks were studied. Twenty-seven adults without speech or hearing handicaps practiced two verbal tasks (reading comprehension and paired associate) under three auditory monitoring conditions.

Individual Differences in Verbal Learning
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1963This study constituted pilot work in the prediction of individual differences on a group-administered paired-associate learning task. A battery of tests was administered to 101 Ss who had practiced for 7 min. on the group task. Scores on the Mechanics of Expression Test of the Cooperative English Test correlated significantly with the criterion ( r ...

The simulation of verbal learning behavior
Papers presented at the May 9-11, 1961, western joint IRE-AIEE-ACM computer conference on - IRE-AIEE-ACM '61 (Western), 1961An information processing model of elementary human symbolic learning is given a precise statement as a computer program, called Elementary Perceiver and Memorizer (EPAM). The program simulates the behavior of subjects in experiments involving the rote learning of nonsense syllables.

The Stimulus in Serial Verbal Learning
The American Journal of Psychology, 1961The functional stimulus in serial verbal learning has not been identified specifically. Thus, when a series of items, A-B-C-D-E, etc., is learned as a serial list, it is difficult to determine whether the functional stimulus giving rise to Item D is C, all preceding items, the serial position of the item, all of these factors, or some other aspect of ...
