The Learning Strategy of the Total Physical Response: A Review.
Asher, James J.
The Modern Language Journal, v50 n2 p79-84 February 1966

Some general conclusions suggest that dramatic facilitation in learning listening skills for a second language is related to acting out during retention tests. (AF)
