Effect of Cognitive Style and Learning Passage Organization on Study Technique Effectiveness.
Annis, Linda F.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v71 n5 p620-26 Oct 1979
Field-independent and dependent students read or took notes on a logically organized or scrambed article. Field-independent students scored better than field-dependent students on items of high structural importance to the meaning of the passage. Cognitive style effects on material of low structural importance were not significant. (Author/RD)
