Britton, Bruce K.; And Others – Journal of Reading Behavior, 1985
Investigates some of the mechanisms by which instructional objectives affect learning. Finds that with specific objectives, the secondary-task reaction times while reading objective-relevant material were longer, reading times were longer, and recall was greater than with either a general objective or with no objectives.
