Abstract

Acquisition and long-term retention of concrete (C) and abstract (A) words were investigated under conditions of multiple-trial free recall. Both unmixed and mixed lists were used in original learning. Retention was tested either 1 rain or 1 week after attainment of the learning criterion. Acquisition was faster and retention was higher for C than for A words. These differences were more pronounced for mixed than for unmixed lists.
