First-list retention as a function of list differentiation and second-list massed and distributed practice.

Abstract
The effects of list differentiation on retention following massed and distributed practice were evaluated by measuring 1st-list retention, or RI, in an A-B, A-C situation. A-C learning was either by massed or distributed practice. A-B and A-C learning were either by the same or different practice methods. 1st-list recall was better when A-B and A-C were learned by different procedures than when they were learned by th same procedures. 1st-list recall following distributed A-C learning did not differ from 1st-list recall following massed A-C learning.
