Research summary
AI-generated

Jeffrey D. Karpicke studies how the act of recalling information from memory (called 'retrieval practice' or 'the testing effect') can improve long-term learning, compared to other study strategies like rereading or concept mapping. His work spans laboratory memory research and applied educational settings, including classrooms and self-regulated study, to understand why testing oneself helps people remember and learn material more effectively. This research is relevant to students interested in cognitive psychology, memory, and evidence-based approaches to education.
