Learning And Performance

The aims of the present investigation were to explore the hypothesis that a short anticipation interval in verbal paired-associate learning affects performance rather than learning and to design a procedure suitable for preschool-aged children. One group of Ss received practice on a paired-associate list with a short anticipation interval while another group learned the same list with a longer anticipation interval. When the interval of the former group was increased, they performed as well as the latter group. The results suggest that the number of trials administered in a verbal paired-associate task is a better measure of learning than S's level of performance.

Abstract. Recent studies have shown that judgments of learning (JOLs) are reactive measures in paired-associate learning paradigms. However, evidence is scarce concerning whether JOLs are reactive in other paradigms. In old/new recognition experiments, we investigated the reactivity effects of JOLs in a levels-of-processing (LOP) paradigm. In Experiments 1 and 2, for each word, subjects saw a yes/no orienting question followed by the target word and a response. Then, they either did or did not make a JOL. The yes/no questions were about target words’ appearances, rhyming properties, or category memberships. In Experiment 3, for each word, subjects gave a pleasantness rating or counted the letter “e ”. Our results revealed that JOLs enhanced recognition across all orienting tasks in Experiments 1 and 2, and for the e-counting task in Experiment 3. This reactive effect was salient for shallow tasks, attenuating – but not eliminating – the LOP effect after making JOLs. We conclude that JOLs are reactive in LOP paradigms and subjects encode words more effectively when providing JOLs.
