Abstract

This pre-registered study assessed the effects of a college intervention on sourcing skills using an experimental design. Participants were 266 Latin American students who received either the intervention or regular classes and completed a website-rating task before, after, and 6-8 weeks post- intervention. Trained students gave lower ratings to websites with bad quality sources in both post-intervention assessments; good quality links had similar ratings across all testing phases. Therefore, the intervention improved student’s sourcing skills.
