Effects of task complexity and task organization on the relative efficiency of part and whole training methods. Naylor, J. C. & Briggs, G. E. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 65(3):217–224, March, 1963. ![Effects of task complexity and task organization on the relative efficiency of part and whole training methods.

Paper doi abstract bibtex Task complexity (2 levels), task organization (independence of task dimensions—2 levels), and training method (whole vs. progressive-part) were combined factorially in an 8-group transfer of training study of skill in a Markov prediction task. A hypothesized interaction of the 3 independent variables was supported by the data, thus suggesting the following training principle: for a relatively highly organized (integrated) task, a whole-task training method should be superior to a part schedule at all levels of task complexity; however, for a relatively unorganized task (all task dimensions independent), an increase in task complexity will result in a part-task training schedule becoming superior to whole training.
