Comparative Study of Two Methods of Learning Meaningful Materials

This is to be an experimental study concerned with the law of association in learning. In most studies in association the problem is to discover how associations are set up in a learning process. I mean to approach this problem from a somewhat different viewpoint. I believe that very often in the learning process undesirable associations are formed. The result is that many ideas are associated in such a way that certain stimuli often bring about incorrect or undesirable responses.
