Effects of relearning sessions on verbal mediating responses

Abstract

The effects of repeated sessions upon learning the acquisition pairs and upon mediated facilitation were examined in a modified "miniature"-mediation situation. In Experiment I, two sessions were separated by 48-hr. In Experiment II, three sessions were separated by either 5-min. or 48-hr. The numbers of presentations of the pairs of the two acquisition stages required to meet a criterion decreased over the sessions but mediated facilitation did not. The inter-session interval did not influenc e either ac quisition of the pairs or mediated facilitation.
