Both encoding and retrieval together influence memory performance in ______.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transfer-appropriate processing theory suggests that memory performance is influenced by the similarity between the encoding and retrieval processes. Thus, both encoding and retrieval play a role in determining performance on memory tasks. Depth-of-processing effects refer to the idea that deeper processing leads to better memory performance, while environmental- and mood-dependent effects suggest that context or mood at encoding can influence retrieval success. However, neither of these theories specifically address the role of both encoding and retrieval in determining memory performance.
