To determine whether individual differences in student achievement and learning rate are reduced or eliminated by mastery instruction, 166 navy trainees who completed a computer-managed course in basic electricity and electronics were cluster analyzed using 24 measures of cognitive characteristics. Discriminant analyses were computed between two…

Ascertaining changes in cognitive correlates of learning as students advanced through hierarchical instruction, 24 individual difference measures were obtained from 166 Navy trainees who had completed a computer-managed mastery course in electricity and electronics. Three types of cognitive characteristic measures were used in the study--tests of…

Twenty-four measures of crystallized intelligence (G sub c) and fluid intelligence (G sub f) were obtained for samples of graduates and failures of an innovative instructional situation in which computer-managed mastery learning was used to teach elementary electricity and electronics. Seven stepwise multiple discriminant analyses and associated…
