Tiivistelmä: | This study extends a previous experiment (Earley 2001), showing how a "self-explanation" training intervention promoted learning in an auditing context. A causal model is proposed to examine the effect of providing outcome feedback (i.e., the correct answer) prior to or after self- explaining on the level of reasoning exhibited in self- explanations, and then the effect of level of reasoning on performance. The model was tested through an experiment in which auditors were trained to assess the reasonableness of client-provided discount rates used in real estate valuation. The results support the causal model, indicating that in the absence of outcome feedback, auditors exhibit a lower level of reasoning in their self-explanations, which then adversely affects their performance. |
