Domain-specific¶
- Elaborative Encoding
- Generation supplies the read-versus-produce manipulation and its constraint and prior-knowledge moderators
This sourceMeta-analysis of 445 effect sizes across 86 studies fixing the read-versus-generate manipulation and its size, and showing substantial variation by moderator; it does not itself single out constraint and prior knowledge among those moderators.

- Generation supplies the read-versus-produce manipulation and its constraint and prior-knowledge moderators
- Generation Effect
- Its diagnostic moderators are the meaningfulness of the material and the tightness of the generative constraint: material with no meaningful structure and tasks with constraints so loose that almost any response qualifies show reduced or absent effects
This sourceThe meta-analysis of 86 studies finding a generation advantage of about .40 SD for words but essentially none for nonwords.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 2 of 2 citations: 2 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
