Froese, Arnold D.; And Others
Teaching of Psychology, v22 n4 p235-38 Dec 1995

Students were tested concerning definitions of primary and secondary sources, judgement of citation acceptability, and identification of samples. Students receiving posttest instruction showed marked improvement. Recommends early exposure to bibliographic citation instruction. (MJP)
