Memory Processes: Encoding, Storage, Retrieval · CDP

Retrieval is easier when encoding and recall occur in similar conditions. This supports:

  1. State-dependent memory
  2. Simple passive decay theory
  3. Fully automatic effortless retrieval
  4. Suppression of retrieval cues
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: State-dependent memory

State-dependent memory suggests recall improves when internal states match. Similar contexts provide effective cues.
