From: Evaluation of effectiveness of instruction and study habits in two consecutive clinical semesters of the medical curriculum munich (MeCuM) reveals the need for more time for self study and higher frequency of assessment

Time of self-study divided by quantity of instruction (TSS/QI) over quantity of instruction (QI). 3,260 data points were smoothed using the LOESS algorithm. Open circles. and the solid line denote values from participants in the semester with one (1) assessment, plus signs and the dashed line are from participants with two (2) assessments per semester. TSS/QI and QI appear as inversely related, and TSS/QI tends to be higher in participants with 2 assessments than in those with 1 assessment, given the same QI.
