How well do people remember? What is the best way to remember information? The results of this study could help answer these two questions. Everyone wants to be able to remember things. Students often stress over studying for a test. The purpose of this study is to determine which rehearsal method; highlighting words or writing them down while you study them, increases the recollection of the words. It is hypothesized that writing the words down while studying them would produce the highest number of words recalled. The results of this study suggest that it is easier to remember information if you write it down while studying it.
