Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since you have previously stored the password in your memory and must retrieve it, you are relying on recall. Recognition would apply if you were given a list of possible passwords and had to select the correct one, but in this case, you must retrieve the correct password from memory through the process of recall. Relearning involves learning something again after it has been forgotten, which does not apply in this scenario. Working memory is a type of memory used to temporarily hold and manipulate information that is currently being processed, but it is not relevant to the act of retrieving a stored password.
