Answer:
Jenkins and Russell (1952) presented a list of words like "chair, apple, dish, shoe, cherry, sofa" to participants. In a test, participants recalled the words in a different order than the order in which they were originally presented. This result occurred because of the associative clustering.
Explanation:
Associative clustering can be defined as the ocurrence of sequences of related words when an individual is recalling a randomized word list. This technique is useful because remembering a word according to certain category serves as retrieval cue for other words that may fit in that same category.
In the case of the list of words like "chair, apple, dish, shoe, cherry, sofa," each participant may have recalled the words in a different order according to the categories each of them had created or associated.
