Using a prospective, correlational design, 563 first year nursing students completed the three dimensions of sense of coherence scale – comprehensibility, manageability and meaningfulness, and five components of self-regulated learning strategy – elaboration, organisation, rehearsal, self-efficacy and task value.
Self-regulation variables that differentiated the two groups were perseverance of effort, and some learning strategies (elaboration, organisation, rehearsal, but not monitoring, planning and regulating) as well as resistance to peer influence.
Nüesch and Metzger (2010, p. 48) reported in a small intervention study that "low to medium positive correlations were found between academic performance in economic and business oriented subjects and strategies such as dealing with test anxiety, test solving strategies, elaboration and self-efficacy".
Two of the behavioral items (1 and 3) match expressions typically used to assess the deep-level learning strategy of elaboration (Duncan and McKeachie 2005) but neither of the two items includes information on the motivation for people to use such a strategy.
Therefore, a future strategy for elaboration of these compounds will involve introducing a balance of lipophilicity and polar interactions, as well as decreasing log P. We are currently developing functional assays with these compounds which will be reported at a later date.
In addition, the strategies of elaboration, concrete examples, and dual coding all work best when used as part of retrieval practice.
Severe sepsis/septic shock is still a major cause of PICU admission for children post-HSCT, although its incidence has decreased over the years thanks to the development of anti-infective strategies, the elaboration of reduced-intensity regimens, and better monitoring of subclinical infections [65].

Students in these systems use a variety of learning strategies - especially control and elaboration strategies.
In the table, we use all capital letters to flag the additional/new strategies and/or elaborations to Patterson et al's list based on the current study.
This work also demonstrated the rational design and elaboration strategy of short fluorine-containing chains are vital for the construction of super-anti-wetting surfaces with controllable droplet adhesions.
