Chiu, Ming Ming; Chow, Bonnie Wing-Yin; Mcbride-Chang, Catherine – Learning and Individual Differences, 2007
We examined whether strategies of memorization, transfer through elaboration, and metacognition accounted for reading, science, and mathematics achievement across 34 countries. 158,848 fifteen-year-olds completed a reading literacy test and a questionnaire. Of these students, 88,401 completed a science test, and 88,590 completed a mathematics…
