Is it true that studying in the morning improves memory retention more than studying at other times of day?
Partly. One anecdotal source reports that reviewing vocabulary upon waking improves recall, while a study of metamemory found morning judgments about learning were less accurate than afternoon ones. Neither directly tests whether morning study improves memory retention more than other times of day.
