To demonstrate list facilitation with nonnoxious stimuli, this study used 5 unique nonnoxious stimuli as isolates randomly distributed in a paired-associate list. Lists of 20 identical low-association word-pairs were presented in 3 groups: (1) Control—all 20 pairs in standard format, (2) Control—all 20 in changed format, and (3) Experimental—5 pairs in changed format randomly distributed among 20. 18 male college students (6 per group) received 4 standard PA acquisition trials. Statistically significant findings were: (1) experimental exceeded controls in total list performance, (2) format-changed items (isolates) exceeded control counterparts, (3) standard stimuli in experimental lists exceeded control counterparts, and (4) items immediately preceding and following isolates exceeded others (spread-of-isolation effect). The results were interpreted in terms of OR theory
