re: Anki, I think you might find some of the data the creator of SuperMemo (what anki is based on) very interesting. He’s used a combination of repetition data + a thing in SuperMemo called sleepchart to look at how alertness as the day goes on varies with different sleep things.
First graph here shows how recall varies as a function of hours from waking.
As a long-term SM user, Idon’t think you could use anki/supermemo to measure cognitive ability (easily). Compared to when I first started, my cards are much better with higher optimum interval. That hasn’t been do to anything but just me getting better at the skill of formulating my cards. Changes in skill would create too much noise long-term to see cognitive ability changes. Short term though, I wonder if you could daily recall % as a proxy for cognitively enchanting drugs as long as the time period isn’t so long that skill improvements mess things up.

I don’t claim that you can measure it easily. I think you would need a more complicated mathematical model.
I think it would be great to know the percentage of cards answered at a certain day correctly that get answered correctly the next time the card is shown.

Sorry but what would you do with that? It’s not immediately obvious to me
