High impact information on Transfer (Psychology)

The authors systematically evaluated learning and transfer of learning in children who were or were not receiving methylphenidate and included several design features intended to optimize the likelihood of demonstrating state-dependent learning [1].
Deficient transfer of learning contributed significantly to the impairment observed in the maternal PKU group [2].
Moreover, random practice was beneficial for both age groups in the transfer of learning to novel tasks on a novel ATM [3].
We studied performance on the Grooved Pegboard Test upon repeated trials and transfer of training between the hands in the first trial [4].
