Abstract
72 young adults learned two lists of unrelated words. The lists were presented on study pages either in a single vertical column or in three groups of five words each. More retroactive inhibition occurred when Lists 1 and 2 were spatially arranged in the same manner than when they were arranged differently. The results were consistent with previous studies varying similarity along other dimensions.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
