The term âcarrier oilâ encompasses hundreds of different oils and butters. In the most basic sense, the word âcarrierâ serves to distinguish oils that are not âessentialâ oils. Common carrier oils include olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, grapeseed oil, canola oil, sweet almond oil, walnut oil, and more. The oils in this category vary wildly in terms of texture, colour, thickness, nutritional composition, and scent, but generally they are our base oils/butters.
In order to proceed with his research, Ebbinghaus had first to invent stimulus materials. These needed to be relatively simple, neutral as to meaning, and homogeneous. They needed to be available in large numbers and to allow quantitative manipulation of the amount of material to be retained.
The first scientific study of the learning curve was performed by Hermann Ebbinghaus. Ebbinghaus learned nonsensical three letter words such as âWIDâ âKORâ âZIFâ etc. and recorded his progress.his is the phase, where you make the most progress. Once you reach a certain level of skill and knowledge you enter the phase of diminishing returns. The better you become at the task the less you still can make progress in the learning curve.
