The total time principle as a substitute for the pacing variable in paired-associate tasks with the aged

Abstract

Winn, F.J., Jr. and J.W. Elias. The total time principle as a substitute for the pacing variable in paired-associate tasks with the aged. Experimental Aging Research, 1975, 1 (2), 307–312. Information provided by Monge and Hultsch in support of the pacing variable was reinterpreted in terms of the total time principle. The re-analysis of the transformed data suggests that the total time principle provides a more parsimonious explanation of the data.
