The major purpose of the present study was to determine whether subjects differentially encode in anticipation of immediate or delayed testing. In two experiments, subjects were instructed to study a list of words for a memory test to be given either immediately after stimulus presentation or after a two-day delay. We found that incidental learning of instructions was more easily modified by the learning instructions than was the intentional learning of a word list, and that instructions to expect either immediate or delayed testing significantly altered the encoding strategy employed, though the effect appeared to be of a relatively short duration
