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
 
 
 
not for cognition but for optimizing learning and using the "skill"

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
