一對多對聯列表是由若干不同的反應項，分別配對同一刺激項所組成的列表，故在列表中若干配對是有相同的刺激項。在學習嘗試時，若將這幾個由同一刺激項的配對連續呈現，則在檢驗嘗試時可獲得比其他控制組較好的回憶結果。這可能是因為在連續呈現的情況下，受試者不但可以形成刺激項與反應項的水平方向聯結，而且可能對同一刺激項所配對的反應項間，形成垂直方向的聯結所致。另一發現是，相對於一對一的情況而言，在一對多的對聯列表學習中會有更多的自列表內所闖入的錯誤;這發現也支持了上述有關形成垂直方向的聯結的推測。

　　　　　One-many paired-associate lists were constructed by pairing several responses to the same stimulus. When those pairs having the same stimulus were presented consecutively during study trials, better recall was obtained on test trials than otherwise. Presumably, the former condition allowed subjects to form vertical associations among those response members paired to the same stimulus as well as horizontalassociations between the stimulus and response members of pairs. Another finding that more intralist intrusion errors were obtained in the one-many than in the one-one paired-associate learning also supports the above reasoning.
