To evaluate the overall effectiveness of cognitive task analysis (CTA) as a foundation for instructional design across diverse practitioners and training settings relative to alternative content identification methods.
Conducted a meta-analysis synthesizing controlled studies evaluating the instructional efficacy of CTA across various domains, practitioners, and educational environments.
CTA-based instruction demonstrated a large overall positive effect on learning outcomes compared to alternative approaches (Hedges’s g = 0.871).
Observed effect sizes varied substantially across different CTA techniques and training contexts.
