If practice continues long enough, most subjects will stop improving before practice ends. In such a case, individual subjects may be said to differ in how much each one is "overpracticed" at his or her end-of-practice level. If practice is relatively short, however, almost all subjects will still be improving when practice ends. In this case, subjects differ in rate of improvement late in practice, even though no subject may be overpracticed. In the present study, evidence is presented that when end-of-practice level is statistically controlled, the more that subjects are overpracticed at their endof- practice levels or the more slowly they are improving late in practice, the better skill retention tends to be. Evidence is also presented that rate of improvement early in practice has no effect on retention not mediated by end-of-practice level and either overpractice or rate of improvement late in practice.
