The fact that Thalia was able to correctly answer the questions when she was quizzed by her roommate suggests that she had encoded and stored the information appropriately. However, her inability to retrieve the information during the midterm suggests that the retrieval process was faulty. Thus, it can be concluded that Thalia encoded the information and stored it, but she was unable to retrieve it during the midterm.
