achieved 100% recognition on the listening and 95% for reading recognition
responses he made nine false positive responses (listening) and five false
positive responses for the reading recognition task. C4 could however match
initial syllables for 16 new words with their final syllable. As Table 5.15 indicates
C4 correctly matched more written words to the target picture than when he
heard the words in spoken form.
5.9.2.3 Summary of new learning
Although C4 demonstrated some learning of the new vocabulary word-finding
difficulties appeared to limit this demonstration. He recalled 67% of information
learned for immediate recall and 45% for delayed recall assessments. This
indicated that 67% of information learned during the training sessions was
retained in long-term memory. As predicted C4’s word-finding difficulties
affected the demonstration of his learning for cold recall tasks.
