Effects of Topic Familiarity on Analogical Transfer in Problem- Solving: A Think-Aloud Study of Two Singular Cases

We conducted a qualitative research of case studies based on think-aloud protocols. The aim was to carry out in-depth analyse secondary students¿ cognitive difficulties appearing in early stages of transfer processes in problem-solving. The task was to relate several source problems to a target prob...
