Keiichi Kobayashi – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
This study was conducted to meta-analytically investigate the influence of teaching vs. no teaching expectancy on the learning effects of teaching after preparatory learning. A meta-analysis of 39 studies revealed that a weighted mean effect size for the effect of teaching after studying with or without teaching expectancy vs. merely studying…

Lachner, Andreas; Hoogerheide, Vincent; van Gog, Tamara; Renkl, Alexander – Educational Psychology Review, 2022
Teaching the contents of study materials by providing explanations to fellow students can be a beneficial instructional activity. A learning-by-teaching effect can also occur when students provide explanations to a real, remote, or even fictitious audience that cannot be interacted with. It is unclear, however, which underlying mechanisms drive…

Alazne Fernández Ortube; Ernesto Panadero; Charlotte Dignath – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a key competence for pre-service teachers to develop, both for their own activities as learners and for their future activities as teachers. Therefore, it is crucial to understand how pre-service teachers can be supported in acquiring SRL competence in their initial training. To reach this aim, we conducted a…

Emhardt, Selina N.; Kok, Ellen; van Gog, Tamara; Brandt-Gruwel, Saskia; van Marlen, Tim; Jarodzka, Halszka – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
Eye movement modeling examples (EMMEs) are instructional videos (e.g., tutorials) that visualize another person's gaze location while they demonstrate how to perform a task. This systematic literature review provides a detailed overview of studies on the effects of EMME to foster observers' performance and learning and highlights their differences…

Elisabeth Bauer; Samuel Greiff; Arthur C. Graesser; Katharina Scheiter; Michael Sailer – Educational Psychology Review, 2025
Artificial intelligence (AI) holds significant potential for enhancing student learning. This reflection critically examines the promises and limitations of AI for cognitive learning processes and outcomes, drawing on empirical evidence and theoretical insights from research on AI-enhanced education and digital learning technologies. We critically…

Alexander, Patricia A. – Educational Psychology Review, 2017
What is relational reasoning? Why is it critical to consider the role of relational reasoning in students learning and development in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)? Moreover, how do the particular contributions populating this special issue address the pressing societal needs and offer guidance to researchers and…

Castro-Alonso, Juan C.; Wong, Rachel M.; Adesope, Olusola O.; Paas, Fred – Educational Psychology Review, 2021
Multimedia pedagogical agents are on-screen characters that allow users to navigate or learn in multimedia environments. Several agents' characteristics may moderate their instructional effectiveness, including appearance, gender, nonverbal communication, motion, and voice. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to test hypotheses from diverse…

Rey, Günter Daniel; Beege, Maik; Nebel, Steve; Wirzberger, Maria; Schmitt, Tobias H.; Schneider, Sascha – Educational Psychology Review, 2019
The segmenting effect states that people learn better when multimedia instructions are presented in (meaningful and coherent) learner-paced segments, rather than as continuous units. This meta-analysis contains 56 investigations including 88 pairwise comparisons and reveals a significant segmenting effect with small to medium effects for retention…

Wong, Rachel M.; Adesope, Olusola O. – Educational Psychology Review, 2021
Emotions can both facilitate and hinder learning. Emotional design features such as colors and shapes can be embedded in multimedia learning environments to manipulate learners' affects and learning outcomes. However, some studies suggest that emotional designs promote learning, while others show that they hinder it. Although Brom et al.…

Lespiau, Florence; Tricot, André – Educational Psychology Review, 2019
According to Geary's evolutionary approach, humans are able to easily acquire primary knowledge and, with more efforts, secondary knowledge. The present study investigates how primary knowledge contents can facilitate the learning of formal logical rules, i.e., secondary knowledge. Framing formal logical problems in evolutionary salient contexts…

Schunn, Christian D. – Educational Psychology Review, 2017
This concluding commentary takes the perspective of research on practicing scientists and engineers to consider what open areas and future directions on relational thinking and learning should be considered beyond the impressive research presented in the special issue. Areas for more work include (a) a need to examine educational applications of…

Moreau, David – Educational Psychology Review, 2015
The target articles in this special issue address the timely question of embodied cognition in the classroom, and in particular the potential of this approach to facilitate learning in children. The interest for motor activities within settings that typically give little space to nontraditional content is proof of a shift from a Cartesian…

Phan, Huy P.; Ngu, Bing H.; Yeung, Alexander S. – Educational Psychology Review, 2017
We recently developed the "Framework of Achievement Bests" to explain the importance of effective functioning, personal growth, and enrichment of well-being experiences. This framework postulates a concept known as "optimal achievement best," which stipulates the idea that individuals may, in general, strive to achieve personal…

Wieman, Carl; Welsh, Ashley – Educational Psychology Review, 2016
We collected data at a large, very selective public university on what math and science instructors felt was the biggest barrier to their students' learning. We also determined the extent of each instructor's use of research-based effective teaching methods. Instructors using fewer effective methods were more likely to say the greatest barrier to…

Rawson, Katherine A.; Dunlosky, John; Sciartelli, Sharon M. – Educational Psychology Review, 2013
Practice tests and spaced study are both highly potent for enhancing learning and memory. Combining these two methods under the conditions in which they are most effective (i.e., practice tests that invoke successful retrieval from long-term memory and spacing study across days) yields a promising learning technique referred to as "successive…
