title: The assessment of discriminative encoding in memory for paired associates.
abstract: A technique for providing for the measurement of encoding stability and intralist stimulus discrimination is presented and applied to the analysis of some paired-associate data. Essentially, the measure involves a recall test for all stimuli in the list except one, then presenting either a previously tested stimulus or the missing stimulus. Recognition of repeated stimuli reflects code stability, and recognition of the missing stimulus reflects stimulus discrimination.
