q3 i? All ten reviewed feature-focused trainings showed positive evaluations, though authors cautioned about the absence of delayed posttests. → Rau 2025

q3 · i? · review · r3

"Motz et al. (2022) showed that direct instruction with inductive practice improved participants' fallacy detection compared to a control."
