Pictorial Concreteness and Mode of Elaboration in Children's Learning

Everston, Carolyn M.; Wicker, Frank W.

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 17, 2, 264-270, Apr 74

Paired associate learning by children was studied as a function of age (4 vs 7 yr), stimulus type (line drawing, color photograph, or object), and mode of elaboration (visual or verbal). Results showed that objects and photographs both surpassed line drawings in terms of learning and that they did not differ significantly from each other. (SBT)
