Advance Organizers: Delay Hypotheses.
Glover, John A.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v82 n2 p291-97 Jun 1990
Three experiments with 120 college undergraduates and 62 seventh graders examined the utility of inserting a delay between reading an advance organizer and its related text. A moderate delay may enhance the effects of advance organizers. Results support an "accessibility" hypothesis and do not support a "rehearsal" hypothesis. (SLD)
