Signaling, Notetaking, and Field Independence-Dependence in Text Comprehension and Recall.
Rickards, John P.; Fajen, Brett R.; Sullivan, James F.; Gillespie, Gerald
Journal of Educational Psychology, v89 n3 p508-17 Sep 1997
Two experiments (n=41 and n=166), one in listening and one in reading, examined the relationships among signaling (structural cues), notetaking, and field dependence-independence in college students. Field-independent subjects seemed to use a tacit structure strategy, whereas field-dependent subjects seemed to display structuring skills when notetaking. (SLD)
