Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Retrieval cues are environmental triggers that can stimulate the recollection of memories from long-term storage. The examples in the book of memories being triggered by locations, songs, and smells are all examples of retrieval cues. This demonstrates the importance of retrieval cues in retrieving memories from long-term storage. Long-term potentiation refers to the strengthening of connections between neurons that occurs when memories are formed and consolidated, while elaborative rehearsal refers to the process of actively and consciously relating new information to previously stored knowledge. Mass practice refers to the repetition of material in order to facilitate learning and retention, but does not address the role of retrieval cues in long-term memory retrieval.
