Detailed explanation-1: -The Forgetting Curve, or the Ebbinghaus Curve of Forgetting, is an influential memory model. It shows how learned information slips out of our memories over time – unless we take action to keep it there.
Detailed explanation-2: -Memory experiments Ebbinghaus started by memorizing lists of words and testing how many he could recall. To avoid the use of association, he then created 2, 300 “nonsense syllables”, all three letters long and using the standard word format of consonant-vowel-consonant: for example, “ZUC” and “QAX”.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ebbinghaus is known for his ‘forgetting curve’ which suggests that people tend to continually halve their memory of newly learned knowledge in a matter of days or weeks unless they actively review the learned material [9].
Detailed explanation-4: -His basic stimulus was a ‘row’ of thirteen nonsense syllables, which he studied until he could correctly recall it in the correct order twice in succession. A question that seems pertinent is how stimuli at different serial positions were learned and how these were forgotten over time.
