Distinctiveness of Encoding and Memory for Learning Tasks.
Glover, John A.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v74 n2 p189-98 Apr 1982
A distinctiveness of encoding hypothesis, as applied to the facilitative effects that higher order objectives have on readers' prose recall, was evaluated in three experiments. Results suggest that distinctiveness of encoding may offer a theoretical basis for the effects of adjunct aids as well as a guide to their construction. (Author/GK)
