Whole and part methods were compared to test Naylor's hypothesis that, in a task of high organization, whole methods should become more efficient with increased complexity. Task complexity was varied by having two levels of display-control relationship. The part versus whole comparisons were made in two conditions, one requiring early changeover, the other later changeover to whole task practice. In the early changeover condition no significant differences were found between part and whole methods at either level of complexity. With later changeover, on the other hand, pure part training was inferior to whole training in the high complexity task. This result was present only in the first block of whole practice. No differences were found with the low complexity task. The experiment offers limited support for Naylor's hypothesis. The predicted superiority of the whole method in the high complexity task was only short lived and disappeared with further practice. Furthermore, this prediction was upheld only with later changeover to whole task performance.
对整体法和部分法进行了比较，以检验内勒的假设：在高度结构化的任务中，随着任务复杂性的增加，整体法应变得更有效率。通过设置两个层次的显示-控制关系来改变任务复杂性。在两种条件下进行部分法与整体法的比较，一种条件要求早期转换，另一种条件要求后期转换为整体任务练习。在早期转换条件下，在任何一个复杂程度水平上，部分法和整体法之间均未发现显著差异。另一方面，在后期转换时，在高复杂性任务中，单纯的部分训练不如整体训练。这一结果仅出现在整体练习的第一个阶段。在低复杂性任务中未发现差异。该实验对内勒的假设提供了有限的支持。在高复杂性任务中，整体法的预期优势只是短暂的，并且随着进一步的练习而消失。此外，这一预测仅在后期转换为整体任务表现时才成立。
