The tests are unlikely to be pure in the sense of Quantified Mind' science page. This makes them better checks for general unhealth but harder to diagnose the specific problem with.
If considering only the first session, learning new words in anki is like verbal learning. And verbal learning, though not connected here to cognitive testing, transfers to other abilities: "There is considerable evidence that verbal learning correlates reasonably strongly with performance in a number of important practical tasks. For instance, verbal learning tests have been demonstrated to be highly correlated with prospective remembering in real life, which means remembering to perform a planned action at the appropriate time [29]." -QM Science
term is transfer not generalization; also mention "testing effect"
Specific types of cog/health tests:
and decomposition of the general skill
Causes and models of forgetting:
for this or preceding day; forgetfullness on a specific day and change in state (not just forgetting for that one question but really changeing in state.)
testing days outside of sessions as bad and casuing forgetting
speed / distraction (special for me!!!)
predicting own needs as if the self assement is a matter of how much time will be needed not actual success
speed/ability to learn new word; ability to relearn an old word
Tests of Enthusiasm / determination /emotion
not for cognition but for optimizing learning and using the "skill"
starting early, not gettig distracted, doing many, doing them fast, not skipping days
