Abstract
This study is an attempt to investigate the effect ofperipheral learning on Iranian EFL learners’ vocabulary acquisition, retention and recall. Peripheral learninghere refers to the perception occurring implicitly andincidentally as a result of continuous exposure to the increasing quantity of information (Taylor, 1990). 80 female participants aged between 18 to 21 were selectedand randomly divided in two groups, namely as the experimental and control groups. Before starting the treatment, a validated content-based test was administeredto both groups as the pre-test. Then, after the treatment,three post-tests were administered as immediate recall,delayed recall and retention test respectively. The results demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups for each post-test. By analyzing the results, it was revealed that the peripheral exposure of vocabularyto the participants had a very significant impact on the participants’ vocabulary acquisition, retention, and recall. Key words: Peripheral learning; Vocabularyacquisition; Retention and recall

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
