If considering only the first session, learning new words in Anki is like cued verbal learning like in the CVLT, a cognitive test. Though in the CVLT<ref>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Verbal_Learning_Test</ref> the cue is much weaker. And verbal learning 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]."<ref>www.quantified-mind.com/science</ref> Sever sleep deprivation harms verbal learning.<ref>pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10688201/</ref> Most of time spent on this task may be on short term memory (10 min) and not mid-long term memory (1 day) so the real test could be percent of successful learnings of new words and not speed.
