the claim

People remember text better when reading it on paper than when reading it on a screen.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
1 source for · 1 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that people remember text better when reading it on paper than when reading it on a screen?

Partly. One book excerpt hints that visual ease may affect how much readers remember, while a bachelor's thesis reports that its hypothesis that people remember text better in print than on screen was not confirmed. Neither source directly settles the general claim.
