Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both spontaneous recovery and proactive interference involve the emergence of something learned earlier that should be suppressed at present. In spontaneous recovery, a previously extinguished response reemerges, despite no further training, while in proactive interference, previously learned information interferes with the ability to learn and remember new information. Both involve the reappearance of previously learned information that should not be dominant in the current situation. None of the other options describe both phenomena.
