Each of 64 fifth graders, classified as either a high or a low reading achiever, was assigned to one of four presentation conditions: (1) hear sentences/read…

A 2 x 2 factorial design was used with aural-verbal presentation (standard versus elaborated) and visual-pictorial presentation (standard versus elaborated). Subjects for one experiment were 64 second-grade children from a Mexican-American…
