Maps, Mode of Text Presentation, and Children's Prose Learning.
Abel, R. Robert; Kulhavy, Raymond W.
American Educational Research Journal, v23 n2 p263-74 Sum 1986

There were no differences in recall due to mode of text presentation, but the type of map profoundly influenced recall from both the test and the map. (Author/GDC)
