The exact change
"Neuroscience research on spaced repetition shows that retrieving information from memory is more effective for long-term retention than re-reading it. The cheat sheet creation process, if done from memory, is practicing retrieval. That is why making your own cheat sheet outperforms using someone else's." - Learning science principle underlying certification study advice
Cognitive psychology research on retrieval practice shows that retrieving information from memory is more effective for long-term retention than re-reading it. The cheat sheet creation process, if done from memory, is practicing retrieval, which is why making your own cheat sheet outperforms using someone else's.
Suggested change
De-attributed the quote and corrected the field mischaracterization from 'neuroscience' to 'cognitive psychology,' consistent with the article's own correctly-cited references.
Why this is better
Removed a quote mischaracterizing behavioral/cognitive psychology retrieval-practice research (Roediger & Karpicke, Cepeda et al., correctly cited elsewhere in the article) as 'neuroscience research', attributed to the vague, uncitable phrase 'Learning science principle underlying certification study advice'. De-attributed the quote and corrected the field mischaracterization from 'neuroscience' to 'cognitive psychology', consistent with the article's own correctly-cited references.
