Code review is an important process in software engineering – yet, a very expensive one. Therefore, understanding code review and how to improve reviewers’ performance is paramount. In the study presented in this work, we test whether providing developers with explicit reviewing strategies improves their review effectiveness and efficiency. Moreover, we verify if review guidance lowers developers’ cognitive load. We employ an experimental design where professional developers have to perform three code review tasks. Participants are as
