"At the shortest (zero s) delay, there is a monotonic recency effect for all three species; at the longest delay (10 s for pigeons, 30 s for monkeys, 100 s for humans), there is a monotonic primacy effect for all three species; and at intermediate delays, the functions are U-shaped for all three species. In addition to that change of pattern, there is an absolute increase in performance on the first memory-set item from the shortest to the longest probe delay." Does this apply to anki though? Was this experiment performed many times on the same pigeons or was the effect of memory just the novelty of the experience? If it isn't novelty effect then the effect on anki would be a sort of ideal limit of cards per session. or better to learn new cards first or last. I expect to see this in the data.

some thoughts

the word learning breaks down into three outcomes; remembering including cues at correct time and fluency, skill at a task like typing, and Understanding. Anki is for remembering. Feel like there should be an 'intuition' level of learning like when algebra is so well understood that it is automatically used in every day life turning understanding and knowledge into a skill like typing?

regression to old habits memories when both old and new memories are disused

probably related to "new items are fit into memory" and "the whole structure changes". I imagine interlocking trees and so does Wozniak I think.

"At the shortest (zero s) delay, there is a monotonic recency effect for all three species; at the longest delay (10 s for pigeons, 30 s for monkeys, 100 s for humans), there is a monotonic primacy effect for all three species; and at intermediate delays, the functions are U-shaped for all three species. In addition to that change of pattern, there is an absolute increase in performance on the first memory-set item from the shortest to the longest probe delay." Does this apply to anki though? Was this experiment performed many times on the same pigeons or was the effect of memory just the novelty of the experience? If it isn't novelty effect then the effect on anki would be a sort of ideal limit of cards per session. or better to learn new cards first or last. I expect to see this in the data.


mentions other studies with estimates of maximal storage capacity which is huge

testing increases remembering (testing effect) more difficult the better it is for recall later (just a few lines on this)


interference or as they call it "impairing recall of other items" and "retrieval competition" and recency-to-primacy changes with delay

Like in 20 rules for knowledge by Wozniak, forgetting is for information retrieval efficiency. Why remember all your home addresses when you need to remember the current one. (paraphrase)

memory strength into 2 storage and retrieval

supposedly storage strength never declines but only retrieval does If i understand htis correctly this is true some times; when I need a reminder of my vocab and then I am in a state that allows me to easily remember it but sometimes my state of emmory slips very much and in fact I forget.
