The imagination effect increases with an increased intrinsic cognitive load
Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2007 AbstractThe imagination effect occurs when learners imagining a procedure or concept perform better on a subsequent test than learners studying rather than imagining. Cognitive load theory explains this result by postulating that information is more likely to be transferred from working to long‐term memory under imagination conditions. In an experiment
