Abstract

Research has demonstrated that certain study strategies are more effective than others. We surveyed 96 undergraduate students about the effectiveness of different study techniques, the techniques that they use, and how they acquired their study habits. Although the participants identified some effective strategies, they still reported using ineffective strategies.
