Subclaims¶

q4 i? Moderator analyses indicate that response congruency, elaborated retrieval practice, and initial test performance strongly influence whether positive transfer occurs. → Steven C. Pan and Timothy C. Rickard 2018

q4 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3

Moderator analyses across the 192-effect-size dataset examined conditions under which positive transfer is more or less likely. The review reports that "response congruency and elaborated retrieval practice, as well as initial test performance, strongly influence the likelihood of positive transfer."

"Moderator analyses further indicated that response congruency and elaborated retrieval practice, as well as initial test performance, strongly influence the likelihood of positive transfer."
