Nist and Joseph (2008) have confirmed earlier research showing that adding and interspersing a large number of time-consuming learning trials targeting known items (e.g., incremental rehearsal [IR] or intersperal) retards student learning rates (Cates et al., 2003 Joseph & Nist, 2006; Schmidgall & Joseph, 2007). In addition, their current study has confirmed earlier research that adding and interspersing known items can improve the quality of learning trials, or the amount learned per unknown… Expand
