Practice takes many forms, but they all entail repeated learning opportunities. The
effectiveness of practice is well known to depend on how these learning opportunities are …

The existing literature on study time allocation has primarily focused on how people regulate
their study time allocation across different items and conditions. However, these studies …

In two experiments, learners studied word pairs one or two times and took a final cued recall
test. They studied each pair upon its initial presentation and decided whether they would …

Learners' success in remembering reflects their strategic approach to the demands that their
memory places on them. Differences in success on memory tasks are usually taken to reveal …

We assessed the effects of removing some constraints that characterise traditional
experiments on the effects of spaced, rather than massed, study opportunities. In five …

In two experiments on self-regulated learning, participants studied word pairs, made
judgments of learning (JOLs), and decided whether to continue practicing after a long or …

Interleaved practice (ie, exemplars from different categories are intermixed within blocks)
has been shown to enhance induction performance compared to blocked practice (ie …

Although the benefits of spaced retrieval are well established, research suggests that young
and older adults often fail to optimally implement this strategy. The present study examined …

We assessed the effects of removing some constraints that characterize traditional
experiments on the effects of spaced, rather than massed, study opportunities. In five …

The testing effect, a phenomenon in which learners' show better long-term retention after
being tested on an item than after restudying it, is one of the most replicated phenomena in …
