Summarization Ability and Text Recall by Novice Studiers.

Rinehart, Steven D.; Thomas, Karen F.

Reading Research and Instruction, v32 n4 p24-32 Sum 1993

Analyzes how sixth graders' untrained summarization ability relates to studying and recall of important text information in a more demanding task. Finds that neither summarization ability nor notetaking skill individually predicted better recall. Suggests instructional guidelines and caveats. (RS)
