Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In order for an individual to retrieve a memory, it must first be stored. Therefore, the correct sequence is to store the memory before retrieving it. Option B (retrieve before rehearsing) is incorrect because rehearsal is a step in the encoding process before storage, and retrieval happens after storage. Option C (process before inputting) is not accurate because processing happens during encoding, but storage is still necessary before retrieving the memory. Option D (store before consolidating) is also incorrect because consolidation refers to the processes that strengthen the memory trace after encoding and storage have already occurred.
