Have there been modern studies of print vs ebook reading retention? The ones I remember are all well over a decade old and in the era when smartphones were new and many people weren't used to reading on a small screen in general. I feel that a lot of the early tests didn't control for the novelty of ereading for people who had only/mostly experienced print reading. Are there any that controlled for people reporting a preconcieved bias about print vs ebooks? We still see a lot of posts by people on the reddit Kindle sub that were adamant about print only until they finally tried an ereader and realized they were just being snobbish.
