Further Comparison of Representation and Transformational Prose-Learning Imagery.
Peters, Ellen E.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v77 n2 p129-36 Apr 1985
Representational and transformational visual imagery instructions were manipulated within two passage types (name and occupation), along with no-strategy control instructions for each passage type. Transformational imagery instructions were effective on the more difficult to remember name passages. Representational imagery instructions were not facilitative on either passage type. (Author/DWH)
