Memory
Recall, chunking, spaced retrieval.
What we measure
Working memory. Holding and manipulating short sequences.
Encoding & retrieval. How well information sticks and can be recalled later.
Chunking. Grouping items into meaningful units.
Strategy use. Planning reviews, mnemonics, and self-testing.
Why it matters
Stronger memory speeds study, languages, exams, multi-step tasks, and reduces relearning time.
How we test it
MCQ recall after brief distractions and sequence questions test retention. SR covers habits like spaced practice. OPEN may ask you to reconstruct steps or key points. Adaptive; reports show score, tier, SE, and N.
Tips to improve
- Use spaced repetition and active recall (no passive rereads).
- Chunk lists (e.g., 3–4 item groups with labels).
- Build mnemonics and visuals; teach back to someone.
- Sleep and short breaks to consolidate.
- Quick daily review loops (5–10 minutes).
