Document Summary
Number of errors s r o r r. Time taken (seconds) s n e k a. Trial number: in both of my graphs above, as the number of trials increases, both the number of errors and the time taken decreased. In the first graph, the biggest decrease in the number of errors occurred in the beginning/first two ish trials, and then the number of errors kept decreasing, just a little more gradual/not as drastic as we learned the task. Doing the same task over and over again (repetition) helps your brain perform the task more effectively and efficiently. This is the same for the second graph as well. The most drastic time taken decrease occurred in the beginning/the first two-three ish trials, and then the time taken kept decreasing, just a little more gradual/not as drastic. This is because we learn how to do the task (more) correctly with practice.
