Hayes, Donald S.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v78 n5 p341-46 Oct 1986
To evaluate the relative effectiveness of two media for conveying narrative information, young children and adults were presented the same story via television or radio. Media differences were found, with children in the radio condition showing significantly more errors in comprehension and memory than children in the television condition. (Author/LMO)
