On the Cognitive Benefits of Teaching.
Bargh, John A.; Schul, Yaacov
Journal of Educational Psychology, v72 n5 p593-604 Oct 1980
Subjects who were preparing to teach scored reliably higher than controls on a subsequent retention test. In experiment 2, for both a verbal and a problem-solving task, subjects either worked alone, verbalized their thoughts or taught another person the task while performing. There were no reliable differences. (Author/CP)
