Effects of spatial distance on the effectiveness of mental and physical integration strategies in learning from split-attention examples

作者:

Highlights:

• Mental and physical integration strategies support learning from text and picture.

• We studied whether benefits remain with a larger distance between text and picture.

• The mental integration strategy outperformed the physical strategy on recall.

• No main or interacting effects of spatial distance were found.
