摘要/Abstract


摘要: 为检验前置测试是否可以有效地提升老年人学习新事物的能力,参与实验的老年人被随机分为有前置测试的实验组和无前置测试的对照组,在实验1中学习了5列单词,在实验2中记忆了5列日用品,在实验3中学习了4段讲座视频。结果表明,实验组老年人对新事物的记忆成绩均高于对照组的老年人。结论认为,前置测试能够显著提升老年人学习新事物的能力,干扰降低与学习参与相结合的“加减”理论能更好地解释提升老年人记忆的前向测试效应。



图1前向测试效应的实验流程 注:实验组(又称测试组)的每一列事物学习之后即进行当列测试, 对照组(又称演算组或重学组)在前几列事物学习之后进行演算或者重新学习等其他任务。实验组和对照组最后一列学完后均进行当列测试, 然后进行总体测试。
