  • Title: Long-term effectiveness of imagery instructions with retarded persons.
    Author: Zupnick JJ, Meyer PA.
    Journal: Am J Ment Defic; 1975 Mar; 79(5):519-25. PubMed ID: 1121978.
    Abstract:
    The effects of imagery instructions on paired-associate learning efficiency and on the retention of 16 picture pairs were investigated using two groups of EMR individuals with approximate mental ages of 8 and 11 years, respectively. While facilitated list mastery was obtained under imagery instructions, no facilitation was found for 1-week retention performance. However, in learning a new list immediately following the retention task, those individuals who had received imagery instructions during original learning continued to exhibit facilitated learning. These results extend previous work.
