Relationships between Associative and Content Structure of Physics Concepts.

Thro, Mary Patricia

Journal of Educational Psychology, v70 n6 p971-78 Dec 1978

The development of the associative structure of physics concepts as a result of the content presented to the learner and the relationship between associative structure and academic achievement was investigated using a treatment and a control group. Assessment of associative structure may allow insight into a learner's progress which complements achievement testing. (Author/RD)
