Paired-associate (PA) recall was investigated under a retroactive inhibition paradigm. During original learning (OL), Ss learned PA response trigrams composed of either consonants (LLL), digits (DDD), or letter-digit combinations (LDL or DLD). Each interpolated learning (IL) response was identical to an OL response with the exception of the middle element. Although Experimental S s made significantly more complete errors (failure to recall entire IL trigrams under modified-modified-free-recall) than Control Ss (who were not required to learn the IL list) on all types of verbal response content, overall results were consistent with both chunking and associative-chaining hypotheses of recall
