During the quarter the students completed three projects, in which they explained the social-psychological principles they thought were illustrated in self-selected materials. The projects were scored on elaborative processing, i.e., the use of relevant, cogent, and detailed explanations. NFCS and elaboration orientation scores were then correlated with the summated scores from three multiple-choice tests. Results indicate that students high in need for cognition achieved more academically than those low in need for cognition, because the former were more effective information processors.Publication Metadata only Extracting information from graphics(Lawrence Erlbaum Assoc Publ, 1998) Department of Psychology; Department of Business Administration; Gülgöz, Sami; Yedekçioğlu, Ömer Asım; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Department of Psychology; Department of Business Administration; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 49200; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Family and human development across cultures(Psychology Press, 1996) N/A; Department of Psychology; Kağıtçıbaşı, Çiğdem; Faculty Member; Department of Psychology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AN/A
