Students are put into three groups, and each group hears the same short set of equipment codes once. Straight after hearing them, the groups repeat the codes a different number of times. The next day, every student is asked to recall the codes. The table shows the percentage of each group who correctly recalled all of the codes.
| Number of repetitions | Correct recall (%) |
|---|---|
| 0 | 18 |
| 2 | 54 |
| 5 | 82 |
