Abstract
An online system selects content items for a user to increase probabilities of the user remembering the content items after presentation. The online system generates one or more models based on information describing amounts of time users have viewed previously presented content items. Hence, a model associated with a user predicts an amount of time the user will view a content item. When selecting content items for the user, the online system selects one or more content items that the user is predicted to view for an amount of time within a specific range, which may be based on amounts of times other users have viewed the content item or content items similar to the content item. For example, the online system increases a probability of selecting a content item the user is predicted to view for an amount of time within the specific range.
