When percent correct is used to compare accuracy across the two conditions, the substitutive interspersal condition produced accuracy levels of either 90% (total correct) or 80% (percent correct on only unknown words), whereas the control condition with only unknown words resulted in only 70% correct. However, under the interspersal condition, the student learned 4 words, but under the control condition, the student learned 7 words.

Standard adjective formation from 'substitute' + '-ive' meaning 'serving to replace', which is directly derivable from the base.
Etymology
Substitutive comes from Latin parts sub- 'in place of' and -stitute 'to place', the same root as the familiar word substitute. So a substitutive material or treatment acts as a replacement or 'stand-in' for the usual one.
