- Summary:
-
A study was made to determine whether or not educable mentally retarded students at the primary and intermediate levels attend to and gain knowledge from filmstrips, or if, in fact, their test performance variance is distributed randomly. The subjects are individually shown a tape-synchronized filmstrip; they are administered both a pretest and a posttest (answers confirmed on posttest only). Overall, the results confirm the research assumption that viewing a filmstrip is related to the subject's performance as measured by criterion referenced items administered in a pretest/posttest design. However, a significant difference in performance is found between primary and intermediate groups. It is suggested that there is an age level or maturity level below which cognitive gain traceable to a mediated presentation may not occur. (Author/WCM)
