Research Abstract

This research examined the abstract knowledge that promotes analogical transfer in mathematical problem solving. In Experiment 1, three types of instruction of abstraction (equation, subgoal, and control) made different mistake pattern in transfer problems.
In Experiment 2, to give the role instruction has an effective transfer when learners made use of a subgoal, however it has not effective transfer when learners made use of the equation. In experiment 3, four types of instruction of abstraction (equation, subgoal, analogy, and control) made different similarity judgment pattern between target and base problems. Especially, the subgoal instruction promotes both surface and equation similarity between them. In conclusion, the abstract knowledge that clarifies role relationships toward sub-goal promotes analogical transfer.
