Transfer of learning between isomorphic artificial domains: Advantage for the Abstract

Year: 2004

Type: article

Abstract: Transfer between isomorphic domains was investigated.Thirty college undergraduate students learned two isomorphic artificial systems.One system was concrete in the sense that it was perceptually rich and dynamic, while the other was abstract, involving written symbols.The results show significant positive transfer from the abstract domain to the concrete domain and no significant transfer from the concrete to the abstract.
