Susser, Jonathan A.; McCabe, Jennifer – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2013
Laboratory studies have demonstrated the long-term memory benefits of studying material in multiple distributed sessions as opposed to one massed session, given an identical amount of overall study time (i.e., the "spacing effect"). The current study goes beyond the laboratory to investigate whether undergraduates know about the advantage of…
