Implications for the Design of Computer-Based Instruction Screens.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Morrison, Gary R.; And Others – Computers in Human Behavior, 1989
Summarizes the results of five studies dealing with screen design for computer-based instruction (CBI) and provides suggestions for their application as well as future directions for research. Chunking, text density, and screen density are discussed as variables in screen design, and current research is described. (33 references) (LRW)

The MMPI Is Less Sensitive to the Automated Testing Format than It Is to Repeated Testing: Item and Scale Effects.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Schuldberg, David – Computers in Human Behavior, 1988
Describes study that investigated the effects of computerized test administration on undergraduates' responses to the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), and discusses methodological considerations important in evaluating the sensitivity of personality inventories in different administration formats. Results analyze the effects of…

Computer Assisted Training of Complex Managerial Performance.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Streufert, Siegfried; And Others – Computers in Human Behavior, 1988
Discussion of the degree of training effectiveness in management training technologies focuses on a training experiment which employed two scenarios of a computer assisted simulation. Structural components of managerial effectiveness versus specific content of managerial tasks are described, and suggestions for future training technologies are…

Effectiveness of Computer-Based Instruction: An Updated Analysis.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kulik, Chen-Lin C.; Kulik, James A. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1991
Presents a meta analysis which examines results of 254 controlled evaluation studies that compared student learning in classes taught with and without computer-based instruction (CBI). Outcome measures are described, statistical analysis and effect size are discussed, and results are reported that show that CBI usually produces positive effects on…

Effectiveness of Computer-Based Education in Elementary Schools.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kulik, James A.; And Others – Computers in Human Behavior, 1985
This metaanalysis of 32 comparative studies shows that computer-based education has generally had positive effects on the achievement of elementary school pupils. However, these effects are different for off-line computer managed instruction and interactive computer assisted instruction (CAI); interactive CAI produces greater increases in student…

The Use of Small Groups in Computer-Based Training: A Review of Recent Literature.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Stephenson, Stanley D. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1994
Recent work in small-group computer-based training (CBT) reveals that the approach does not necessarily lead to higher achievement. Many of the studies, however, have methodological weaknesses. If proper guidance and structure can be provided to group members, using small group CBT should lead to higher achievement than individual CBT. (Contains…
