Abstract
Sixty-four Ss learned one of two paired-associate (PA) lists (A-B or C-B) and then transferred to a 100-word recognition list (RL). During RL Ss were required to indicate as each word was shown whether or not that word had been shown earlier in RL. The stimulus words from one of the PA lists (A words) appeared in the first half of RL. Both the natural language associates of the A words (A′) and the PA response words (B) appeared in the second half of RL. There was a significant interaction indicating more errors were made to B words than to A′ words following A-B learning, but the opposite obtained following C-B learning.
