Confidence-Based Repetition
These combined concepts of Repetition, Active Recall, and Metacognition work together to
create Brainscape’s unique process of Confidence-Based Repetition (CBR). CBR acts essentially
as your personalized knowledge stream, where bite-sized concepts are repeated one after
another, in Question/Answer pairs, and then re-entered into the repetition queue in intervals
based on your confidence in how well you know them. Low-confidence items (e.g. the 1’s and
2’s) are repeated more often until you upgrade your confidence to higher levels.
