Primes

• Spaced Repetition
  • Spaced repetition is a memory-strengthening procedure that decomposes into four functional components: the encoded item (discrete reviewable representation — question-answer pair, cloze deletion, or procedural step), the inter-presentation interval (spacing between successive reviews, typically expanding over time from hours to weeks to months), the retrieval-attempt practice (active recall or recognition testing at each interval, with outcome recorded), and the strength-modulated rescheduling (algorithm that adjusts the next interval upward when retrieval succeeds, downward when retrieval fails, approximating a schedule that reviews each item just before it is forgotten).

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
