Human Behaviour:

concepts in an educational context. The testing effect was examined immediately after practice, after 18 days, and at a five-week delay in a sample of undergraduate students (n = 83). The results revealed that repeated testing with feedback significantly enhanced learning compared to rereading at all delays, demonstrating that repeated retrieval enhances retention compared to repeated encoding in the short- and the long-term. In addition, the effect of repeated testing was beneficial for students irrespectively of working memory capacity. It is argued that teaching methods involving repeated retrieval are important to consider by the educational system. Questions: 1) Describe aims/hypotheses, participants, methodology, procedure of primary DRR article 2) Explain the major findings/results of primary DRR article 3) Explain how the primary DRR has extended past/new research, and generate one implications/real world applications and future research suggestion
