TL;DR
This experiment found an expertise reversal effect of segmentation in animated worked-out examples: segmented animations were more efficient than continuous animations for students with lower prior knowledge, but not for students with higher prior knowledge. The effect appeared on mental effort and instructional efficiency, not on transfer test performance.
Key findings
- Segmented animations were more efficient than continuous animations at one standard deviation below the mean prior knowledge: near transfer, b = 0.39, t(71) = 2.60, p = .01; far transfer, b = 0.33, t(71) = 2.20, p = .03. At one standard deviation above the mean, this difference disappeared: near, b = −0.05, t(71) = −0.36, p = .72; far, b = −0.10, t(71) = −0.67, p = .51.
- Mental effort during instruction showed a significant prior knowledge × condition interaction, b = 0.38, t(71) = 2.06, p = .04. At lower prior knowledge, continuous examples were marginally higher in mental effort than segmented ones, b = −0.32, t(71) = −1.98, p = .05; at higher prior knowledge, continuous examples decreased in mental effort, b = −0.49, t(71) = −2.71, p = .01, while segmented examples remained almost equal, b = −0.02, t(71) = −0.11, p = .91.
- No significant interaction was found for near or far transfer performance. The regression models were significant for near transfer, F(3, 71) = 8.61, p = .00, adjusted R² = .24, and far transfer, F(3, 71) = 6.01, p = .00, adjusted R² = .17.
- Efficiency regression models were significant for near transfer, F(3, 71) = 7.13, p = .00, adjusted R² = .20, and far transfer, F(3, 71) = 6.70, p = .00, adjusted R² = .19, with significant interaction coefficients for near, b = −0.35, t(71) = −2.07, p = .04, and far, b = −0.34, t(71) = −2.00, p = .05.
Methods
- Participants were 76 Dutch secondary education students (53% female; mean age = 16.16, SD = 0.80), randomly assigned to segmented or continuous animated worked-out examples. One participant was excluded for missing values, leaving 37 in the segmented and 38 in the continuous condition.
- A computer-based Flash learning environment administered a prior knowledge test (4 multiple-choice and 8 open items; max score 12), eight animated worked-out examples on probability calculation (computer-paced, approximately 2 min each), transfer tests (8 open near-transfer and 4 open far-transfer items), and a 9-point mental effort rating after each animated example. Segmented examples were divided into 5–7 segments with 2-s pauses and a slightly darkened screen; continuous examples were shown as one stream.
- Regression analyses entered prior knowledge (centered), condition (0 = continuous, 1 = segmented), and their interaction simultaneously as predictors. Follow-up tests examined condition effects at one standard deviation below and above the mean prior knowledge. Efficiency was calculated using the Paas and Van Merriënboer formula with test performance and mental effort invested during learning.
Limitations
- The authors state that the pauses between segments created a difference in learning time between conditions, with segmented students having more time per animated example. They note that no additional information was provided during pauses and that 2 s is probably too short for reflection, but future studies should control time-on-task.
- The authors state that the study did not reveal the cognitive processes underlying the expertise reversal effect, and suggest future research using cued retrospective reporting combined with eye movements.
- The authors state that it is unclear whether the results generalize to animations for declarative knowledge about natural processes or mechanical systems. They also suggest that the limited range of prior knowledge—most participants were not complete novices or full experts—may explain why no interaction was found on performance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
