Memory
From the period of 1883-84, I have seven tests, consisting of nine series of 12 syllables each that were relearned 24 hours after the first memorisation. The following results were obtained:
| L | LW | δ | Q |
| 791 | 508 | 283 | 37.9 |
| 750 | 522 | 228 | 32.3 |
| 911 | 533 | 378 | 43.6 |
| 725 | 494 | 231 | 33.9 |
| 783 | 593 | 190 | 27.1 |
| 879 | 585 | 294 | 35.2 |
| 689 | 535 | 154 | 23.9 |
| m790 | 539 | 251 | 33.4 P.E.m=1.7 |
The after-effect of the first memorisation still noticeable after 24 hours, was here equivalent to a saving of work of 33.4 per cent of the first expenditure. This number also agrees satisfactorily with the one communicated above for the relearning of series of 13 syllables each after 24 hours (33.7 per cent), although these two were obtained at far separated time-periods and in the course of widely different investigations.
