摘要虽然间隔提取的助记性优势已经得到证实，但参与者如何自然地对自己的提取进行空间分配却相对未被探索。为了检验这个问题，我们开发了一种新的实验范式，让年轻而健康的老年人在正在进行的阅读任务中控制提取练习的频率和时间。结果表明，两个年龄段的人都自然地延长了提取练习的时间间隔。在指导下，年轻人，而不是老年人，在提取练习中能够更好地使用等间距提取。然而，即使在等间隔提取指令下，年轻人也会在等间隔提取之前进行早期提取尝试。虽然记忆成绩相当，但在实验者指导的条件下，与参与者选择的条件相比，次级任务的成绩有所降低。总体而言，结果表明，年轻的和年长的参与者都会自然地监控他们的记忆，并有效地使用测试来滴定在获取阶段使用的提取尝试的次数和时间。
ABSTRACT Although the mnemonic benefit of spaced retrieval is well established, the way in which participants naturally space their own retrieval is relatively unexplored. To examine this question, a novel experimental paradigm was developed in which young and healthy older adults were given control over the frequency and timing of retrieval practice in the context of an ongoing reading task. Results showed that both age groups naturally expanded the intervals of their retrieval practice. When instructed, younger adults but not older adults were better able to employ equal spaced retrieval during retrieval practice. However, even under equal spaced retrieval instructions, young adults included an early retrieval attempt prior to equally spacing their retrieval. Although memory performance was equivalent, secondary task performance was reduced in the experimenter-instructed condition compared with the participant-selected condition. The results overall indicate that both younger and older participants naturally monitor their memory and efficiently use testing to titrate the number and timing of retrieval attempts used during the acquisition phase.
