S-R VS. R-S RECALL AND R-TERM VS. S-TERM RECALL FOLLOWING PAIRED-ASSOCIATE TRAINING,

Abstract

This paper reports the results of three experi ments. The first compared the number of correct S-R and R-S pairs following paired-associate training. All terms were easy to pronounce. In the second experiment, half of the Ss were ex posed to the same lists as in the first; the other half were exposed to lists with hard-to pronounce terms. Half of the Ss in each condi tion were given an S-R test following paired associate training and the other half were given an R-S test. The third experiment replicated the second except that stimulus-term recall and response-term recall were substituted for the S-R and R-S tests. The predictions were that (1) the number of correct S-R pairs will exceed the number of correct R-S pairs; (2) the number of correct R-terms during R-term recall will exceed the number of correct S-terms during S-term recall each of these effects will be greater at low than at high levels of pronounceability.
