inlärning

Question 1

Factors determining learning sucess

Answer 1

• total time spent learning
• repetition
• genetics
• Distributed practice(flera kortare sessioner)/spacing effect(sessionerna är utspridda o man gör andra grejer mellan?)/lag effect(increasing benefit as the lag between two study occasions)
• Motivation(intrisic: curiosity. Extrisic: reward)
• distractions(dåligt)
• generellt tillstånd ig(typ dåligt om man e trött eller mår skit osv)

Question 2

Why spacing effect & lag effect work?

Answer 2

Deficient processing hypothesis: both arise bc ppl pay less attention to recently encountered things and don’t process then as well as something they saw a long time ago
Encoding variability: you will remember something better if you encode it in a variety of different ways, and have different thougts about it(bc you are creating a richer array of associations for accessing the memory
Study-phase retreval hypothesis: when u see something a second time, it reminds u of the first time u saw it. The very act of retrieving the prior occurence is what strenghtens your memory - more so the more difficult retrieval islag and space increase difficulty)
