A study by psychologists at Temple University and the University of Pittsburgh suggests that varying what we study and spacing out learning over time can both be helpful for memory, depending on what is being remembered. The research found that spaced learning benefited item memory, but memory for associative information benefited from stability. The study's findings indicate that both variability and spacing may present methods to improve memory for isolated features and associative information, with potential applications for future research, education, and everyday life.
