Schemata Training and Transfer of an Intellectual Skill.
Phye, Gary D.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v81 n3 p347-52 Sep 1989
Advice and feedback on analogical reasoning were manipulated to produce varying conditions for college-age subjects (228 college students). Subsequent testing indicated a general transfer effect for verbal analogy solution and a procedural transfer effect for cause-effect relationships. Results are discussed within the context of schema theory. (TJH)
