[...] technique d'apprentissage souvent utilisée en laboratoire : la méthode des couples. On donne à apprendre à un groupe de sujets une liste de plusieurs couples, composés par exemples de deux mots : jardin-ratio, festin-route, papier-cage. Pour mesurer le souvenir de la liste de couples (liste 1), on présente chaque premier terme du couple au groupe de sujets, qui doit donner le second terme.
