Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Study and Testing on Student Learning, Retention, and Ratings of Instruction.
Halpin, Glennelle; Halpin, Gerald
Journal of Educational Psychology, v74 n1 p32-38 Feb 1982

Results indicate that testing is valuable in the learning process but not popular with students. (Author/GK)
