Which test includes a learning curve analysis across multiple trials?

Understanding how learning unfolds over repeated attempts is tested by looking at performance across several learning trials. The CVLT-II is designed around verbal learning across multiple trials of the same word list, typically giving you five learning trials. This setup lets you see a learning curve—how encoding improves and retrieval gets faster or more accurate across trials, not just in a single recall. It also provides immediate and delayed recall and recognition, but the essential feature is tracking performance across those repeated trials to map learning rate and memory encoding over time. The other assessments focus on different memory or cognitive domains. The Rey–Osterrieth Complex Figure Test centers on visuospatial recall after copying the figure, emphasizing how well someone reproduces a complex image rather than how their learning changes across multiple attempts. The Stroop Color-Word Test measures cognitive control and interference resolution, not learning across trials. The Symbol Digit Modalities Test evaluates processing speed with a single, time-limited task.
