Table 1.

Mean (SE) percentage of correct answers in blocks 1 and 2 of the translation recognition task (phase 2) for both old and new words according to the number of exposures during the incidental learning phase (phase 1)

	Block 1		Block 2
	% correct		% correct
Number of exposures	Old words	New words (control)	Old words	New words (control)
2	61.2 (1.7)	55.3 (1.5)	76.9 (1.7)	72.3 (1.7)
4	64.9 (1.6)	57.7 (1.3)	74.1 (1.7)	71.6 (1.6)
6	66.4 (1.6)	59.9 (1.5)	77.0 (1.4)	72.2 (1.4)
8	68.9 (1.3)	58.8 (1.4)	75.9 (1.5)	69.8 (1.2)

Note: None of the new words have been presented during the incidental learning phase. However, they were split into number of exposures subsets in order to provide a control comparison for the purpose of the analysis only.
