The benefit of generating errors during learning
Open accessAbstract
Testing has been found to be a powerful learning tool, but educators might be reluctant to make full use of its benefits for fear that any errors made would be harmful to learning. We asked whether testing could be beneficial to memory even during novel learning, when nearly all responses were errors, and where errors were unlikely to be related to either cues or targets. In 4 experiments, participants learned definitions for unfamiliar English words, or translations for foreign vocabulary, by generating a response and being given corrective feedback, by reading the word and its definition or translation, or by selecting from a choice of definitions or translations followed by feedback. In a final test of all words, generating errors followed by feedback led to significantly better memory for the correct definition or translation than either reading or making incorrect choices, suggesting that the benefits of generation are not restricted to correctly generated items. Even when information to be learned is novel, errorful generation may play a powerful role in potentiating encoding of corrective feedback. Experiments 2A, 2B, and 3 revealed, via metacognitive judgments of learning, that participants are strikingly unaware of this benefit, judging errorful generation to be a less effective encoding method than reading or incorrect choosing, when in fact it was better. Predictions reflected participants' subjective experience during learning. If subjective difficulty leads to more effort at encoding, this could at least partly explain the errorful generation advantage.

The General Discussion (p. 7) reports that unsuccessful retrieval attempts accompanied by feedback enhanced learning. In Results and Discussion (p. 6), 77% of responses were errors of commission, yet final recall was significantly higher after retrieval attempts with feedback than after studying the answers for the same amount of time. The Concluding Comment (p. 8) explicitly says feedback is critical. (LLM, conf=0.94)

“Furthermore, it is difficult to explain Kane and Anderson's (1978) findings by Grimaldi and Karpicke's account, since in their undetermined condition the targets were unrelated to the most obvious, incorrect, completions so it is highly unlikely that they would have been retrieved along with them.”

“In both Grimaldi and Karpicke's (2012) and Huelser and Metcalfe's (2012) studies, participants generated guesses which were highly related to the cues in both the related and unrelated conditions (e.g., sleep for the cue pillow).”

What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites Grimaldi & Karpicke, 2012 sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Experiment 1 procedure says participants guessed a target for both related and unrelated cue–target pairs. The Experiment 2 Materials section says the lure for each cue was its most frequently produced response, and Experiment 2 describes a lure as related to its cue. These passages support cue-related guesses in both pair types, but do not establish that participants’ guesses generally were highly related to the cues. (LLM, conf=0.81)
- Supportedcites Huelser & Metcalfe, 2012 source
The Latent semantic analysis section reports that participants generated errors related to the cue in both the related- and unrelated-materials conditions. It gives similar cue–error relatedness values for the two conditions in Experiment 1 (.28 and .25), and reports the same pattern in Experiment 2. The provided passages do not give page numbers.

Experiment 3 describes participants predicting whether they would remember words as they first encountered complete words or fragments. Its Results report higher memorability ratings for generated than read items, both between and within subjects; the General Discussion says participants were more optimistic about remembering generated items. The paper supports the cited example, though it does not itself establish how often this occurs across studies. (LLM, conf=0.88)

§ The benefit of generating errors during learning > General Discussion
What the sources say
- Disputedcites Grimaldi and Karpicke (2012) sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Results and discussion for Experiment 1 say the findings are consistent with a search-set account in which related candidates are activated during retrieval, and that the memory benefit occurred for related cue–target pairs but not unrelated pairs. The paper instead finds general error-correction and additional-cue theories difficult to reconcile with the results. It does not say the correct answer had to be already known during generation. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
- Partly supportedcites Huelser & Metcalfe, 2012 sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Learning phase performance section reports a memory benefit after incorrect guesses, with correctly guessed trials excluded; this supports the challenge to an account requiring the correct answer to be produced during generation. But the Abstract and Experiment 2 discussion say the benefit occurred only for semantically related cue–target pairs, not unrelated pairs. Those findings do not support saying the paper is inconsistent with a proposal requiring an existing cue–target relationship. (LLM, conf=0.86)

“Therefore, Grimaldi and Karpicke's proposal that errorful generation is only beneficial for related items (because they are covertly retrieved at study and thus benefit from a classic testing effect) and not for unrelated items (because they are not retrieved at study), may not be the only possible explanation for their findings.”

The General discussion reports that retrieval attempts enhanced learning of related targets but not unrelated targets, and explains this through activation of related candidates in a search set during the retrieval attempt. It does not propose that targets are covertly retrieved at study or that they benefit from a classic testing effect; that part of the attributed explanation is unsupported. (LLM, conf=0.88)

“This perception that Generate items were harder to learn than items studied under the other two methods may have led participants to apply more effort to the learning of corrective feedback for Generate items, consistent with research showing that studying difficult items requires greater cognitive effort which in turn enhances memory”

“Our finding that JOLs were heavily influenced by success at study is theoretically interesting because it suggests that not only are people's perceptions of their learning strongly affected by fluency of processing at encoding but that this fluency is itself influenced by the production of either a correct or incorrect answer immediately prior to encoding of corrective feedback.”

“A possible explanation for our findings is that participants' curiosity about the correct answer was aroused to a greater extent in the Generate than in the Choice condition, perhaps because searching for an answer in the Generate condition involves more active engagement and effort than simply selecting one in the Choice condition or perhaps because, in the Choice condition, the participant knows”

“In our study, where participants had to learn completely novel material, they would have known that their generated guesses were almost certain to be wrong but they may still have been highly curious to learn the correct answer, and the discrepancy between their own response and the actual answer may have induced a similar sense of surprise and led to greater attention being applied to encoding”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
