Abstract
This article describes four properties of empirical forgetting functions that may, at different times, be taken to represent the rate of forgetting.

Retention of Spanish learned in school was tested over a 50-year period for 733 individuals to determine the level of original training, the grades received, and rehearsals during the retention interval in the form of reading, writing, speaking, or listening to Spanish.

Data are presented to indicate that interference is independent of the interval between original and interpolated learning, that nonassociative recency discriminability approaches a limit at about 30 min, and that the decay rate of long-term retention in amnesic patients is the same as in normal Ss.
