Dual coding theory (DCT) explains human behavior and experience in terms of dynamic associative processes that operate on a rich network of modality-specific verbal and nonverbal (or imagery) representations. We first describe the underlying premises of the theory and then show how the basic DCT mechanisms can be used to model diverse educational phenomena. The research demonstrates that concreteness, imagery, and verbal associative processes play major roles in various educational domains: the…

The results indicated the viability of an account of concreteness effects in paired-associate learning based on the joint functions of distinctive and relational information and remove theoretical constraints imposed on imagery theories by the incorrect assumption of a uniform presence of concretion effects in memory for word lists.
