Abstract
Eight groups of subjects learned five 10-item lists of either concrete or abstract nouns following a training session which provided instruction and practice with one of four mnemonic techniques. Six of the mnemonic groups were instructed to use imagery mediators and two groups were instructed to use verbal-type mediators. Two noninstructed groups served as controls. Recall for three of the four mnemonic groups tested on concrete nouns was greater than for the concrete noun control group. No differences were found for groups tested on abstract nouns. Verbal and imaginal mediation instructions produced no recall differences on either concrete or abstract noun lists.
