Ebbinghaus, a famous German psychologist, conducted a large number of experiments with himself as a subject and wrote a research report on memory called "Memory Psychology: Revealing the Laws of Memory through Experiments." He told the world about effective methods to improve memory knowledge, the relationship between learning content and learning speed, and how the sensational memory curve and forgetting curve were derived.
Reader comments
Through a large number of experiments on himself, Ebbinghaus summarized the memory rules and forgetting characteristics of the human body, which has been an important reference material for people to explore learning methods. This book collects and promotes the application of his experimental results, and restores his rigorous scientific attitude and amazing experimental results in the form of first-hand information. For example, in the chapter on obtained averages, Ebbinghaus concluded that human psychological susceptibility and attention fluctuate in curves, and there is no universal memory rule. Scientific research on human psychological phenomena only has universal regular phenomena. Because of this, we need to actively explore learning methods in our studies, instead of following others' opinions and taking book knowledge as a guideline without thinking.
When I was studying education, I came across Ebbinghaus's memory curve. This is the first time I have read his work. The third part of the book is exactly about this curve, and I used it to gain a deeper understanding of it. The content of the first two parts of the book is the author's cognitive theory of memory, including the origin and classification of memory. This part of the book can give you a macro understanding of memory. In the second part, the author describes in detail how he carried out the memory experiment, including how to prepare for the experiment, how to analyze the experimental materials, how to record the experimental results, how to minimize the errors in the experiment, how to draw conclusions objectively and accurately, etc. This part of the content is very professional and not easy for ordinary readers to understand. If you are in a hurry, it is recommended to just read the last part.
People will naturally have the trouble of forgetting, and they will also naturally have the process of repeated learning. As you can imagine, both of these are very time-consuming and frustrating. But this book will teach you how to accomplish these two things most efficiently. This book proposes the famous Ebbing-Loss Forgetting Curve, teaching you to learn and forget scientifically, so that you can get twice the result with half the time. This is a book that can actually extend your life in a scientific sense. I really recommend reading him to anyone who wants to take a step further in life and career.

This is an in-depth look at the principles and psychology of memory. By introducing and analyzing psychological experiments, it reveals the operating mechanism and laws of memory, bringing readers an in-depth understanding of memory. This book uses scientific methods and theories to systematically introduce the different types of memory, the storage and retrieval process of memory, and various factors that affect memory. The author vividly explains the mystery of memory through experiments and cases, helping readers better understand and apply memory principles.
The writing style of this book is very rigorous and the writing style is concise and clear. The author Hermann Ebbinghaus used experiments to reveal the laws of memory, which is amazing! His research was very helpful to me in understanding how to improve my memory. This book is well worth reading!
