Abstract Synopsis

  • Retrieval practice, which involves actively recalling information, leads to greater meaningful learning than elaborative studying methods like concept mapping.
  • This advantage was consistent across common science texts and applied to various types of questions, including those requiring comprehension and inference, even when creating concept maps.
  • The results support the idea that retrieval practice boosts learning primarily through retrieval-specific mechanisms, making it a valuable tool for teaching science concepts.
