Abstract

After A-B, A-D transfer learning with compound stimuli, subject-item protocols were categorized according to whether backward, response-to-stimulus recall resulted in B and D eliciting the exact same stimulus component (stay events) or entirely different stimulus components (switch events). Stay events were twice as frequent as switch events, and negative transfer relative to the A-B, C-D control paradigm occurred only for stay events.
