The time gap between which a piece of information is repeated can affect the result of inductive category learning. 

Longer periods of delay can benefit category learning. 


Temporal Spacing in Inductive Category Learning


Information in inductive category learning can be organized in different sequences that might be based on information variability, relations, and level of difficulty.

What you learn is more than what you see: what can sequencing effects tell us about inductive category learning? 

When a correction of misinformation is presented after the misinformation itself, the correction is more effective. 


Misinformation Correction and Message Order


Even with attempts of correction, falseful information can still have continued influence on people’s impression of certain subjects. 


Continued Influence and Misinformation


The order in which information is presented can have an impact on an individual's way of analyzing and categorizing information. 


Information Order and Categorization


When young children are exposed to a series of information, their judgment of morality is influenced by the order in which the information is presented.

Organization and Sequence of Information in Inductive Category Learning


How different a category (and a sample) is from another can be an important factor affecting the learning outcome of inductive category learning, and the influence may vary depending on the sequences being used and compared.
