144 male and 144 female students attending Grades 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 serially learned a list of 8 nonsense syllables. All Ss were tested for retention after 24 hr. The ambient contextual stimuli were markedly altered during the recall session. 1/2 the Ss recalled in the same room used during original learning and the others changed rooms. Data were analyzed with a 3-way analysis of variance and covariance. Results indicate that (a) older Ss learned more rapidly but did not recall better, (b) contextual change impaired retention across age levels, and (c) females were slightly superior to males in recall but not in acquisition.
