Abstract

The purpose of this experiment was to examine the predictive power of Bower’s associative model in an investigation of the “hook-up” phase of paired-associate transfer. Presumably, if the model had sufficient power to generate results predicting transfer performance, then other aspects of the verbal learning process, e.g., the response-learning stage, might conceivably submit to a similar analysis. Thus a synthesis of the laws governing verbal learning could possibly be achieved via mathematical integration.
