Self-regulated learning of important information under sequential and simultaneous encoding conditions.

Abstract: Learners make a number of decisions when attempting to study efficiently: they must choose which information to study, for how long to study it, and whether to restudy it later. The current experiments examine whether documented impairments to self-regulated learning when studying information sequentially, as opposed to simultaneously, extend to the learning of and memory for valuable information. In Experiment 1, participants studied lists of words ranging in value from 1-10 points sequentially or simultaneou… Show more

“…Participants may be more selective under conditions that tax attentional resources less (i.e., simultaneous presentation, full attention) than those that may have a greater strain on attentional resources (i.e., sequential presentation, divided attention), consistent with prior findings (Ariel et al, 2009; Dunlosky, Ariel, & Thiede, 2011; Dunlosky & Thiede, 2004; Middlebrooks & Castel, 2017; Robison & Unsworth, 2017; Siegel & Castel, 2018). It may also be the case that the combination of these factors produces compounded effects.…”

“…In order to compare selectivity between groups and across grids, we used hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) to analyze item-location recall accuracy as a function of item value. HLM has been used in previous studies investigating memory selectivity (Castel, Murayama, Friedman, McGillivray, & Link, 2013; Middlebrooks & Castel, 2017; Middlebrooks et al, 2017; Middlebrooks, McGillivray, Murayama, & Castel, 2016; Middlebrooks, Murayama, et al, 2016; Raudenbush & Bryk, 2002). The post-hoc binning of items into low, medium, and high value groups may not accurately reflect participants’ valuations of to-be-learned stimuli (e.g., Participant 1 may consider items with values 6–10 to be of “high” value, while Participant 2 may only consider items with values 8–10 as such).…”

“…Items that are less likely to be on the test are studied for shorter amounts of time (Dunlosky & Thiede, 1998). This differential allocation of study time is more effective in simultaneous presentation than in sequential presentation (Middlebrooks & Castel, 2018). Thus, both expectations and the format of the to-be-learned information constrain the ways in which subjects adapt their study strategy.…”
