Shebilske, Wayne L., Corrington, Kip and Jordan, Jeffrey A. (1994): Massed versus Distributed Practice in Complex Skill Acquisition. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 38th Annual Meeting 1994. pp. 1215-1219.

“A training sequence on a complex video research task was distributed over 10 days or massed within two days. Measures of fatigue and confidence were taken. A final test battery given 1 week after acquisition consisted of retention tests, a test of resistance to interference, and a test of transfer. Trainees in the Distributed condition performed better throughout. Massed and Distributed trainees showed moderate levels of fatigue and did not differ from each other. Differences in confidence could not account for the results. Theories based on massing simple task acquisition within an hour are discussed as a framework for understanding and reducing suppression caused by massing complex tasks within days.”
