Abstract
Does learning vary proportionally to the amount of practice? Does this relation vary with the interval between learning and recall? The present paper is based on finger maze learning in the hope of resolving the differences found in the author's previous work with nouns and syllables (see III: 2188) and that of Luh (Psychol. Monog., 1923, 142, 44). Overlearning is economical, more so for 200% than for 150%, as measured by retention tests, and most economical at 50%-100%. No consistent variation is shown between increases in retention and length of interval. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)Keywords
