Concept

Conclusions (Designs of concept maps and their impacts on readers’ performance in memory and reasoning while reading)

  • Concept maps offer more than a reduction of information into nodes and links; they can also reduce extrinsic cognitive load, and facilitate comprehension and reasoning by manifesting the references and relationships in a coherent symbolisation system.
  • This study shows that concept maps with different strategic orientations may lead to the formation of different mental representations, which may exert different facilitative or constraining effects on readers’ memory or reasoning performance while reading.
