Verbal and Nonverbal Adjunct Aids to Concrete and Abstract Prose Learning.

Cunningham, Donald J.; And Others

Journal of Experimental Education, v51 n1 p8-13 Fall 1982

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the relative efficiency of verbal and visual adjunct aids for concrete and abstract prose learning. For the abstract passage, verbal aids worked best and visual aids were somewhat disruptive. The concrete passage did not demonstrate the equivalency for two types of aids. (Author/PN)
