Journal Article
Chen, O., Kai Yin Chan, B., Anderson, E., O'sullivan, R., Jay, T., Ouwehand, K., …Sweller, J. (2024). The effect of element interactivity and mental rehearsal on working memory resource depletion and the spacing effect. Contemporary Educational Psychology, 77, Article 102281. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cedpsych.2024.102281

The spacing effect occurs when learning with rest periods is superior to learning without rest periods. Cognitive load theory has explained this superiority by working memory resource depletion, under which resources are depleted during cognitive act...
