Dai, Ting; Kaplan, Avi; Wing, Ying; Cromley, Jennifer G.; Perez, Tony; Mara, Kyle R.; Balsai, Kyle R.; Yo – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2017
Whereas relevance-writing interventions have shown effects on students' achievement, a persistent finding is that interventions benefit students with low, but not high, outcome expectancies--a phenomenon that Schwartz et al.
