Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a paired-associate learning experiment, participants are tested on their ability to recall the second word in a pair when presented with the first word. Therefore, Peggy would be presented with the first word of each pair (e.g., "boat" and "car") and would need to recall the associated second word (e.g., "hat" and "house").
