Abstract

The present study examined the effects of preview sentences and paragraphing in expository text on subjects' recall of the text. College students who participated in this study were randomly assigned to one of four text version groups : the no preview sentences and no paragraphing group, the no preview sentences and paragraphing group, the preview sentences and no paragraphing group, and the preview sentences and paragraphing group. The result showed no significant effects of preview sentences and paragraphing. However, students' learning ability being considered, significant interaction effects were found. Although subjects with high teaming ability recalled well regardless of whether or not passage was paragraphed, subjects with low teaming ability recalled mare in paragraphing condition than no paragraphing condition. The implication of these results is discussed.
