Adult Age Differences In Knowledge Of Retrieval Processes, L. J. Anooshian, S. L. Mammarella, Paula T. Hertel

Psychology Faculty Research

We assessed knowledge of retrieval processes in young (25-35 years) and old adults (70-85 years).

We found age group differences in the accuracy of retrieval monitoring, free recall, and recall aided by phonological cues. Using …

Repeated Acquisition With The Developmentally Disabled, Jeannie Madsen

Masters Theses

Repeated-acquisition data were obtained from four developmentally disabled adults. The task was selecting the poker chip with the sticker on its underside in a sequence of sets of chips. When a sequence was mastered (four consecutive errorless runs) the subjects were given a new sequence to learn. Money was reinforcement for correct sequence completion. Total errors before mastery was the dependent variable.

In Phase 1 the subjects completed as many sequences as possible during each 15-minute session. Errors per sequence was a reasonably stable dependent variable within subjects, and between-subject differences were what would be expected on the basis of …
