Abstract
This study looks at the roles that competition and context of advisement play in transfer, advisor use, attitude toward mathematics, and attitude toward instruction in a computer-based simulation game that required the use of mathematics skills. It is concluded that for transfer training, non-competitive simulation games might be the best choice, better at least than simulation games that include a time-pressure factor. Advisement appeared to be a good way to promote transfer and positive attitude toward mathematics and instruction, the latter two of which can indirectly promote future performance.
