Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Retrieval is the process of accessing information stored in memory. In answering exam questions, we are retrieving information from our memory in order to provide an answer. Encoding is the process of initially acquiring information, priming is the activation of related information in memory, and storage is the process of retaining information in memory. None of these processes alone fully explain how we answer exam questions.
