What is The Effect of Spaced Learning on the Learning Outcome and Retention of Nurse Anesthesia Students: a Randomized-controlled Study about?

## Background Poor learning and retention are common problems of students, which may be alleviated by optimization of widely used educational methods such as lectures. This study aimed to investigate the effect of spaced learning on the learning outcome and retention of nurse anesthesia students. ## Methods This was a randomized controlled study with a pre-and post-test design on 64 nurse anesthesia students who were divided into two groups of spaced lecture (__n__ = 32) and conventional lecture (__n__ = 32). The spaced lectures included three 30-minute training sessions with 10-minute intervals while the conventional sessions including 90 min of continuous training. Students’ knowledge was measured using one valid and reliable questionnaire developed by the research team. All students in both groups took a pre-test, and their level of knowledge acquisition was evaluated immediately after the training. Their level of knowledge retention was tested two and four weeks after the lecture. ## Results There was no significant difference between the two groups regarding demographic characteristics (__p__ > 0.05). In the pre-test, the mean score of knowledge in the intervention group was l
