Advance Organizers: Retrieval Context Hypotheses.
Corkill, Alice J.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v80 n3 p304-11 Sep 1988
Issues related to the retrieval context set by rereading advance organizers (AOs) before recall tests were examined in six experiments with 57 seventh graders and 323 undergraduates. Only rereading the AO significantly affected recall. AO theory and a general perspective on encoding and retrieval contexts are discussed. (TJH)
