Abstract
"The 78 college students who served as subjects practiced individually on a Koerth pursuit rotor for 4 daily sessions of 25 minutes each. Trials were uniformly of 1-minute length, but rests differed for the several groups so that the number of trials per day were unlike . . … The advantages of distributed practice were evident throughout, being especially marked on the first day. In spite of the widely differing number of trials, all groups scored very much alike at the end of each daily practice session . . … Overnight changes bore little relationship to the distribution of trials within each period . . … Scores following changes in single rest entervals between trials early and late in each day showed a 20-second interval to be unfavorable to a 1-minute rest in all comparisons."
