A sample of 45 undergraduate volunteers produced think aloud data while learning one of three versions of a reference map. Following map learning, the students read a text in which the events were related to the map features. Recall of text events was associated with accurate encoding of map structure. Results were interpreted within a dual coding framework, which emphasises cross-code retrieval and a computational advantage for images of spatial displays.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
