Instructing Children To Use Memory Strategies: Evidence of Utilization Deficiencies in Memory Training Studies.

Bjorklund, David F.; Miller, Patricia H.; Coyle, Thomas R.; Slawinski, Jennifer L.

Developmental Review, v17 n4 p411-41 Dec 1997

Extends the concepts of utilization deficiencies in a review of 30 years of memory-training research. Finds that over half of training conditions showed at least one type of utilization deficiency. Utilization deficiencies were more common for younger than for older children and were more likely when training involved multiple, rather than single, procedures. (Author/KB)
