Peer reviewedVerdi, Michael P.; Johnson, Janet T.; Stock, William A.; Kulhavy, Raymond W.; Whitman-Ahern, Polly – Journal of Experimental Education, 1997

Results with 100 undergraduates and 112 middle school students supported the expected outcome of improved recall when the display preceded the text. (SLD)
