  • Introduction to the Process and Types of Memory

    • Memory is the ability to take in information, encode it, store it, and retrieve it at a later time.
    • In psychology, memory is broken into three stages: encoding, storage, and retrieval.
    • The third process is the retrieval of information that we have stored.
    • Some retrieval attempts may be effortless due to the type of information.

  • Types of Forgetting

    • There are many ways in which a memory might fail to be retrieved, or be forgotten.
    • But disuse of a trace will lead to memory decay, which will ultimately cause retrieval failure.
    • Semantic cues are used when a memory is retrieved because of its association with another memory.
    • Occasionally, a person will experience a specific type of retrieval failure called blocking.
    • This is the failure to retrieve a word from memory, combined with partial recall and the feeling that retrieval is imminent.
