Abstract

As a test of the frequency theory of verbal discrimination (VD) learning, the effect of strong associations between items within pairs was compared to the effect of strong associations between correct and incorrect items in different pairs. The interpair associations produced significant interference in VD learning, whereas intrapair associations had no effect. The results raise questions about the adequacy of the frequency theory.
