q3 i? Retrieval rating × condition interactions were significant for memory and transfer; within cue-only JOLs, higher ratings predicted better Phase B performance, while ratings were unrelated or negatively related in low-retrieval groups. → Ritter 2025

Ritter, C., Hausman, H., Gaschler, R., Tiffin-Richards, S. P., & Kubik, V. (2025). The Forward Effect of Judgements of Learning on Memory and Transfer in Inductive Learning. Educational Psychology Review. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10648-025-10094-4

q3 · i? · causal · r3

Exploratory participant-level regression in Experiment 1 testing retrieval rating, group, and their interaction; interactions were significant for memory, F(1,115) = 7.88, p = .006, and transfer, F(1,115) = 9.20, p = .003. The printed b coefficients are unstandardized, so no standardized effect size is reported.

"higher retrieval ratings in the cue-only JOLs group predicted significantly better memory ( b = 0.05, 95% CI [.006, .095], p = .026) and transfer (b = 0.05, 95% CI [.006, .088], p = .024)."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Experiment 2 replicated the forward effect of cue-only JOLs over restudy with rock categories, and item-by-item feedback did not change the effect — related
• Cue-only JOLs, but not cue–target JOLs, showed the inverted U-shaped JOL–response-time relationship taken as a behavioral signature of covert retrieval (Experiment 1) — related
• In Experiment 1, cue-only JOLs produced significantly better Phase B memory and transfer than restudy, while overt retrieval's memory advantage over restudy was only marginal — related
• In Experiment 1, interim tasks with high retrieval probability (overt retrieval, cue-only JOLs) enhanced new inductive learning more than low-retrieval tasks (cue–target JOLs, restudy) on both memory and transfer — related
• Cue-only JOLs performed similarly to overt retrieval, and cue–target JOLs similarly to restudy, on Phase B memory and transfer (Experiment 1) — related
• In Experiment 1, the interim learning task did not affect Phase A posttest performance, indicating the forward benefit was not due to improved prior learning — related
