“…The results of elaborative interrogation studies (e.g., Wood et al, 1999) were encouraging. For example, these studies explored: (a) different kinds of questions asked (Martin & Pressley, 1991); (b) how high and low levels of prior knowledge influence learning (Willoughby, Wood, & Kahn, 1994;Woloshyn, Pressley, & Schneider, 1992); (c) differential quality of responses students made to why questions (Pressley, Symons, McDaniel, Snyder, & Turnure, 1988); (d) different aged students using why questions (Willoughby, Porter, Belsito, & Yearsley, 1999); (e) differing formats of presented information (Seifert, 1993;Woloshyn, Willoughby, Wood, & Pressley, 1990); and (f) recall and comprehension of text (McDaniel & Donnelly, 1996;Seifert, 1993).…”
