| Abstract: | 76 5th-graders were taught the English translations of 20 Spanish nouns; 10 possessed concrete referents and 10 did not. Three different variations of the mnemonic keyword method (imagery, sentence, and imagery-or-sentence) were compared to each other and a no-strategy control group. Each of the 3 keyword variations greatly facilitated Ss' learning of both concrete and abstract words, and no differences were found among the 3 keyword variations.
