A series of 5 recall trials, without informational feedback, were given following IL in an RI paradigm. The recall trials produced an increase in the number of correct responses and an increase in the stability of the correct responses. Relearning took fewer trials following the recall trials and there was no evidence that practice of errors during the recall trials interfered with relearning.
