Abstract

In Kazanas et al.’s (2020) study, they found an advantage for learning new Spanish word pairs via the survival processing paradigm. The current study aims to extend their findings by examining differences in word type (i.e., emotion vs. non-emotion) in learning English-Spanish translations after reading a survival or moving scenario.
