Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Context-dependent learning refers to the idea that recalling information is easier when the environmental cues present during encoding are also present during retrieval. In the context of a math exam, taking the exam in the same physical setting as where the material was learned may provide environmental cues that aid in retrieval and improve performance. State-dependent learning, on the other hand, refers to the idea that recalling information is easier when an individual's internal state (e.g. mood, level of arousal) during encoding matches their internal state during retrieval. Mood congruence and elaborative rehearsal are not relevant concepts in this context.
