Short-term memory, from seconds to hours.<ref>Memory, Short-Term - MeSH - NCBI (nih.gov) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/68008570</ref> 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.

Age and memory complaints correlate with poorer cued recall at 55min delay and the test may identify subtle impairments.<ref>pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35786222/</ref>
