Robert S. Ryan; James A. Koppenhofer – Teaching of Psychology, 2024
Background: College students often do not retain what they learn in Statistics in order to apply it in Experimental Psychology. Self-explanation, that is, elaborating on what one is trying to learn by asking questions, making inferences, etc., improves learning and may improve retention. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine…

Tian Fan; Luotong Hui; Liang Luo; Anique B. H. de Bruin – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Recent research has suggested that students prefer restudying over retrieval practice when learning difficult materials, despite the latter being a more effective learning strategy. The current study investigated whether an instructional intervention can improve the use of retrieval practice for both easy and difficult materials. In Experiment 1,…

Maya Sobel; Linden Higgins – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
Students' academic performance improves when they use active study methods and discussion of study strategy efficacy can impact students' choice. Faculty often employ mid-semester wrappers to encourage student reflection on their study habits, so we explored whether exposure to research about learning embedded within post-exam wrappers was…

Lorraine Laguerre Van Sickle; Regina F. Frey – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2025
General chemistry is often the first course taken by students interested in careers in STEM and health fields, and therefore, is considered an essential course for the success and retention of students in these fields. Prior studies have shown study habits and skills to be related to student performance in college-level courses, including STEM…

Melisa P. Kaye; Marcella McCollum; Sydney Hanzalik – Journal of Occupational Therapy Education, 2025
Studying for exams forms a significant part of the occupational therapy graduate school experience. While successful completion of exams is a central focus for students, little time is devoted to explicitly teaching new graduate students how to most effectively study. Instead, when they enter their occupational therapy programs, students…

Neeraj Yadav – Online Submission, 2024
Students have different study habits from one another and from location to location. It is a crucial component of education since students' study practices have a big effect on their achievement in academics. Parents, educators, administrators, and members of the public are increasingly concerned about the poor level of mathematical comprehension…

Mediation of Study Habits and Techniques between Music Training and Academic Achievement in Children
Katya Martin-Requejo; Alejandro González-Andrade; Aitor Álvarez-Bardón; Sandra Santiago-Ramajo – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Although music training has been related to better school performance, the processes that may mediate this improvement are unknown. Given that study habits and techniques are one of the variables most closely related to academic achievement, the present study analyzed the differences in study habits and techniques between children with and without…

Mu-Hsuan Chou – Psychology in the Schools, 2025
Language mindsets influence learners' behavior, motivation, and strategic approaches to studying a language. These mindsets impact how learners perceive control and value in achievement activities, which, in turn, affect their achievement emotions and ultimately their learning strategies and academic performance. This study investigates the…

Theepan Tharumalingam; Brady R. T. Roberts; Jonathan M. Fawcett; Evan F. Risko – Educational Psychology Review, 2025
Increasing the playback speed of video lectures is popular amongst students as a time saving strategy, but does this negatively impact test performance? Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to examine the effect of increasing video lecture playback speed on content test performance. A meta-regression with robust variance estimation was used to…

Despite the increasing implementation of formative assessment in medical education, its' effect on learning behaviour remains questionable. This effect may depend on how students value formative, and summative assessments differently. Informed by Expectancy Value Theory, we compared test preparation, feedback use, and test-taking motivation of…

Abraham E. Flanigan; Jordan Wheeler; Tiphaine Colliot; Junrong Lu; Kenneth A. Kiewra – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Many college students prefer to type their lecture notes rather than write them by hand. As a result, the number of experimental and quasi-experimental studies comparing these two note-taking mediums has flourished over the past decade. The present meta-analytic research sought to uncover trends in the existing studies comparing achievement and…

Zachary S. Hazlett; P. Citlally Jimenez; Jennifer K. Knight – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2025
Evidence abounds that passive strategies such as rereading or highlighting are less effective than active strategies such as drawing models or explaining concepts to others. However, many studies have also reported that students tend to use learning strategies that they perceive as comfortable and easy, even when other strategies may be more…

Yue Yin; Tian Fan; Wenbo Zhao; Jun Zheng; Xiao Hu; Ningxin Su; Chunliang Yang; Liang Luo – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Employment of appropriate study strategies is crucial for academic success. Previous findings on whether use of specific strategies is related to academic performance in real educational settings were inconsistent, and their participant samples were largely restricted to undergraduate students. The current study recruited a large sample (i.e.,…

Jolan Hanssens; Carolien Van Soom; Greet Langie – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2025
The societal demand for graduates with expertise in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) stands in contrast with prevalent issues of diminished interest among high school students in STEM subjects and low completion rates in STEM academic programs. In the Flemish educational context, heterogeneity in STEM preparedness of…

Maria Theobald – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2025
Background and Aims: The hypothesis that study strategies can compensate for less study time in predicting learning outcomes has often been proposed but rarely tested empirically. Methods: In the present study, 231 university students reported their daily perceived time spent on self-study, study strategies (planning, monitoring, concentration and…
