Cognitive Effects of Self-Referencing.
d'Ailly, Hsiao H.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v20 n1 p88-113 Jan 1995
The role of self-referencing was investigated in 3 experiments using a 5-term linear ordering task designed to simulate certain aspects of mathematics education for 228 college students. Beneficial effects of self-referencing were found for questions involving self-referencing themselves, but not for questions not involving self-referencing. (SLD)
