Abstract

A current experiment, along with a reanalysis of data from an earlier study by Bartling and Thompson (1977), provided results inconsistent with the Tulving-Wiseman function (Tulving & Wiseman, 1975). With type of word pair as a within-subject variable, observed probabilities of recognition conditionalized on recall were less than predicted probabilities from the Tulving-Wiseman function for noun-adjective, cue-target pairs. The reverse was true for adjective-noun pairs. Observed probabilities of recognition conditionalized on recall were generally not different from predicted probabilities for noun-noun and adjective-adjective pairs. These list-subset effects were used to support the argument that additional research on the relation between recognition and recall is needed before supporters elevate the Tulving-Wiseman function to the status of a law.
