Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Context-dependent memory suggests that memory is aided by being in the same environment or context in which the information was learned. Therefore, Ryan should study quietly in the classroom where he will take his exam to aid his memory recall during the test. Studying in a different location, such as the apartment or outside in the pavilion, may hinder his memory recall during the exam. Studying with friends in the library may be distracting and not provide the same context as the exam room.
