Parkes, Jay; Zimmaro, Dawn M.; Zappe, Stephen M.; Suen, Hoi K.
Educational Research and Evaluation: An International Journal on Theory and Practice, v6 n4 p357-78 Dec 2000
Examined the effects of concept maps on the task-related variance components of Political Science performance assessments for 187 college students. Task variance components were unchanged across groups using or not using concept maps. But the person main effect components increased and the task-by-person interaction components decreased for those using concept maps. (SLD)
