Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Massed practice involves cramming and attempting to learn large amounts of material in a short period of time, often with the use of caffeine or other stimulants. This type of practice is generally less effective for long-term retention of information compared to distributed practice, which involves spreading out study sessions over a longer period of time.
