  1. Retrieval • Bringing stored information to conscious thought Lets Jog Our Memory!!!!!!!

  2. Recall Versus Recognition Recall Recognition you must identify the target from possible targets multiple-choice tests • you must retrieve the information from your memory • fill-in-the blank or essay tests

  3. Recall versus Recognition Lazy Smurf or Lethargic Smurf I probably cannot recall the Smurfs, but can I recognize them? Papa Smurf or Daddy Smurf Handy Smurf or Practical Smurf Brainy Smurf or Intellectual Smurf Clumsy Smurf or Inept Smurf

  4. Retrieval Cues

  5. Priming To retrieve a specific memory from the web of associations, you must first activate one of the strands that leads to it. This process is called priming.

  6. Context-Dependent Memory • It helps to put yourself back in the same context you experienced (encoded) something. • If you study on your favorite chair at home, you will probably score higher if you also took the test on the chair.

  7. Percentage of words recalled 40 30 20 10 0 Water/ land Land/ water Water/ water Land/ land Different contexts for hearing and recall Same contexts for hearing and recall

  8. Déjà Vu • That eerie sense that you have experienced something before. • What is occurring is that the current situation cues past experiences that are very similar to the present one- your mind gets confused. Is déjà vu really a glitch in the Matrix?

  9. State-Dependent Memory • You remember better when you are in the same psychophsyiological state as you were when you learned the material.

  10. Mood Congruent Memory • Tendency to recall experiences that are consistent with one’s current good or bad mood. • Primes negative or positive associations
