The present study extends this work by further defining the components of a third generation approach and comparing it to a first generation approach using three commonly examined dependent variables: recall, near transfer, and far transfer. Results show no significant differences in trainee performance for participants in either the first or third generation training condition.born digitalmasters thesesengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
