Dosage effects in tracing to learn

We are conducting a research study about tracing effects using the index finger to trace out elements of a brief anatomy lesson.

If you decide to take part in this study, you will be asked to complete a lesson on blood flow in the library study room or in a quiet classroom. You will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire about your demographics (3 minutes) and physiology prior knowledge self-report questionnaire (5 minutes).
You will then be asked to study a short lesson about the blood flow diagram on paper (3 minutes).

After completing the lesson, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire (5 minutes) and will then be asked to complete another test about what you learned from the lesson (18 minutes). Lastly, you will be debriefed about the experiment (3 minutes). 

Eligibility

Participants must be older than 18 years of age and able to read English.
