Self-Modeling and Children's Cognitive Skill Learning.

Schunk, Dale H.; Hanson, Antoinette R.

Journal of Educational Psychology, v81 n2 p155-63 Jun 1989

Self-modeling was studied in three experiments with a total of 148 elementary school children who had experienced difficulties in arithmetic. Observing self-model videotapes raised achievement outcome as well as viewing peer models. Self-model tapes showing skill acquisition were as effective as were tapes showing mastery. (SLD)
