Webb, James M.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v19 n3 p251-65 Jul 1994
Effects of immediate and delayed feedback on learning were studied in 2 experiments involving 120 undergraduate students. Subjects answered 90 general information multiple-choice items on 2 different occasions 1 week apart. Subjects rated their confidence in their responses. Results provide support for the Kulhavy and Stock model and the interference-preservation hypothesis. (SLD)
