Role of Delay of Feedback on Subsequent Pattern Recognition Transfer Tasks.

Schroth, Marvin L.; Lund, Elissa

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v18 n1 p15-22 Jan 1993

Two experiments with 100 undergraduates investigated effects of delay of feedback on immediate and delayed transfer tasks involving different pattern recognition strategies. Delay of feedback resulted in greater retention of the concepts underlying construction of the different patterns in all transfer tasks. Results support the Kulhavy-Anderson interference-perseveration hypothesis. (SLD)
