This example demonstrates the concept of relearning, which is the idea that it takes less time to learn and remember something you've previously studied or learned. In this case, Vinny studied hard for the chemistry exam last week, and when he goes to study again the night before the exam, he finds it easier to work through and remember the material. This is because he has already learned it once before, and his brain is able to relearn it more quickly. The other options (Retrieval cues, Schemas, and Priming) do not accurately describe this concept.
