Scevak, Jill J.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v18 n4 p401-13 Oct 1993
Thirty-one high school students in Newcastle (Australia) were trained to use adjunct maps strategically while studying a history text or were tested on the text without map training. Map training subjects had higher scores on all recall measures and main idea transfer measures at one and three weeks compared to those without map training. (SLD)
