Abstract
Sixty Army enlisted personnel representing high, medium, and low ranges of general technical (GT) aptitude learned the correct translations for a list of 15 Korean vocabulary words. Half the personnel in each group were instructed to use a mnemotechnic, the key-word technique, whereas the remaining personnel served as a standard learning control. A self-paced learning procedure was employed with number correct on the final trial, total study time, and study efficiency as the primary criterion measures. Although learning was found to be a positive function of GT aptitude, the key-word technique proved effective for all groups. Implications are discussed.
