q2 i? Unlike fourth-semester trainees, first-semester trainees showed no positive or negative transfer of training from aided Task One displays. → Rouse 1980

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Experiment Five with 48 first-semester trainees in a two-year FAA certificate program, first session training on Task One. The article reports no positive or negative transfer from aided displays, contrasting with Experiment Three's fourth-semester trainees; no effect size is printed.

"However, unlike the resultsfromExperimentThree,therewasnopositive(or negative)transferof training from theaided displays."
