Differential Importance of Hierarchical Learning, Abstractness, and Imagery
This research examined the relative contribution of hierarchical sequencing, abstractness, and imagery to learning. In the past, hierarchical, logical sequencing was not shown to be superior to other modes of instruction, and the interaction of imagery, abstractness, and sequencing had not been examined, especially regarding the possible superiority of any of these as a contributor to learning. The data were produced by 108 high school students w…
Attitudes, Social Choices and Substance Use
This research investigated the effects of four conditions on attitudes and social choices regarding substance use, i.e., involvement with smoking, drinking, and drugs. Three conditions, the treatment dimension, consisted of the presentation of negative evaluations, legal consequences, and physical consequences of substance use, and the remaining condition, a stratification variable, comprised the social reasoning ability of the subjects. The data…
The Interactive Effects of Consonant and Dissonant Teacher Expectancy and Feedback Communication on Student Performance in a Natural School Setting
High, neutral, and low statements of success expectancy were paired with positive and negative success feedback statements in a 2 x 3 factorial design involving 43 low-achieving high school students. The communication was applied to reading comprehension lessons in 10 daily class sessions with two dependent variables, comprehension (test scores) and effort expended as measured by the rate of lessons completed on 33 reading exercises. Incongruent …
The Effects of Instructional Sequencing on Learning from a Simple Knowledge Structure
A large number of studies in the last decade (e.g. Roe, Case, and Roe, 1962; Payne, Krathwohl, and Gordon, 1967; Niedermeyer, Brown, and Sulzen, 1969) attempted to assess the effect that order of information presentation has on learning. The usual method of these studies has been to present to one group of subjects some unit of programmed instruction in its logical order, while another group studied the same material but with the frames presented…
Continuous Progress Concept of Instruction with University Students
Performance and attitudes of Ss who had completed either a traditionally organized university course or an experimental course which held mastery as a requirement for progressing through the course were compared. There were three replications of the experiment, one each in courses in biology, philosophy, and psychology. In all three comparisons the performance of Ss in the E group was higher and their attitudes toward the instructional procedures…
Effects of Ethanol on Ionic Conductances in the Squid Axon Membrane
This paper reviews studies of the effect of ethanol on impulse propagation in single nerve fibers. Voltage clamp experiments on squid giant axons yield the most conclusive results. They show that the sodium conductance increase associated with excitation is reduced by ethanol. There is also a small but variable simultaneous reduction in the maximum potassium conductance. The action potential and voltage clamp results are self-consistent on the ba…
Effects of Several Schedules of Knowledge of Results on Mathematics Achievement
Four forms of a program in mathematics, each varying in the amount of confirmation provided, were utilized in an investigation of scheduling knowledge of results for learners. The schedules were unrelated to achievement
Comparisons of Classical and Instrumental Eyelid Conditioning
Negative Practice in Acquisition and Retention of Programmed Instruction
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects on achievement and retention in spelling of the practice of errors contrasted with the practice of correct spellings. The findings fail to support the beta hypothesis. All group means on a posttest and on a retention test reflected higher achievement for the initial treatment experienced rather than for treatment per se
Role of Knowledge of Results in Programed Instruction
A two-way analysis of variance design was used to compare the effects of knowledge of results, knowledge of results plus knowledge of what the correct response should be, knowledge of results plus an extrinsic reward, no knowledge of results, and the effects of using a teaching machine as a programed text for two modes of responding (multiple choice vs constructed response) in a programed instructional format on the achievement and attitudes of i…

Mesolithic Sites in the Neighbourhood of Flixton, North-east Yorkshire
The setting of the discoveries (1947–9) described in this paper is the relatively flat and low-lying basin of the easterly and coastal end of the Vale of Pickering in north-east Yorkshire. Abounding hereabouts are many ditches nearly all of which serve as field boundaries draining what is mostly quagmire of varying depth. These empty their waters into the Hertford river or Muston Drain, a canalised version of an ancient stream which rises near th…
