Nero, C. A., & Zulkiply, N. (2021). The Effects of Retrieval Practice Across Levels of Thinking and Retention Interval on Reading Comprehension. Asian Journal of University Education (AJUE), 17(4). https://doi.org/10.24191/ajue.v17i4.16222

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Classroom experiment with 100 first-year Cognitive Psychology undergraduates in a 2 x 2 x 2 mixed-subjects design, analysed with a three-way mixed ANOVA on final multiple-choice test scores. The article reports "no interaction effect observed between retention interval and levels of thinking", F(1, 98) = 0.90, p = .345.

"there was also no interaction effect observed between retention interval and levels of thinking, F(1, 98) = 0.90, p = .345, suggesting that the effect of different retention intervals on reading comprehension was equivalent for both lower - and higher -order thinking."
