Test of the generality of Bobrow and Bower's comprehension hypothesis

Abstract

In a test of the generality of the comprehension hypothesis, EMR children were assigned, following pretraining measures, to experimental(n = 24) and control (n = 12) conditions. The experimental group was given intensive training with both self-generated and supplied links, while the control group participated in the same training format but without mediational instruction. Posttraining measures strongly supported the applicability of the comprehension hypothesis to the associative learning of EMR children. Superior associative learning and greater comprehension occurred under generate as compared to supplied conditions.
