Riassunto

The Curve of Forgetting, written by Charles Homer Bean and published in 1912, is a book that explores the phenomenon of forgetting and its implications for learning and memory. The author presents a theory of the curve of forgetting, which suggests that the rate at which we forget information is not linear, but rather follows a curve that is steeper at the beginning and then levels off over time. Bean argues that this curve can be influenced by a number of factors, including the nature of the information being learned, the method of learning, and the amount of time that has passed since the information was first acquired. He also discusses strategies for mitigating the effects of forgetting, such as spaced repetition and active recall.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the curve of forgetting. Topics covered include the psychology of memory, the role of attention in learning, and the importance of repetition and review. The author draws on both scientific research and personal experience to support his arguments, and provides numerous examples and case studies to illustrate his points.Overall, The Curve of Forgetting is a thought-provoking and informative book that offers valuable insights into the workings of memory and the process of learning. It is a must-read for anyone interested in improving their own memory and learning abilities, as well as for educators and researchers in the field of psychology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
