In short-term ordered recall, when 1 list of items is repeated over the course of the experiment, recall performance typically improves. This is known as the Hebb repetition effect (Hebb, 1961). In the present study, we contrasted the typical condition involving a single repeated sequence with concurrent learning of 2 repeated sequences. Participants performed a spatial recall task, in which sequences of 7 dots were presented in each trial. For a given participant, the location of the dots were the same for all trials. Presentation order of dots varied randomly, except for 1 or 2 particular series that were repeated every 4 trials. Results revealed a significant learning slope for both the single and dual list conditions and learning was as efficient in both conditions. The findings provide further evidence in support of models linking the Hebb repetition effect to word-form learning.
在短期顺序回忆中，当在实验过程中重复列出一组项目时，回忆表现通常会提高。这被称为赫布重复效应（赫布，1961年）。在本研究中，我们将涉及单个重复序列的典型条件与同时学习两个重复序列进行了对比。参与者执行了一项空间回忆任务，每次试验中会呈现7个点的序列。对于给定的参与者，所有试验中点的位置都是相同的。点的呈现顺序随机变化，但每4次试验会重复1个或2个特定序列。结果显示，单列表和双列表条件下都有显著的学习斜率，并且两种条件下的学习效率相同。这些发现为支持将赫布重复效应与词形学习联系起来的模型提供了进一步的证据。
