Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Retrieval cues are used to access stored memories. These cues can be words, images, sounds, or other stimuli that are associated with the memory being retrieved. The use of retrieval cues can improve the accuracy and speed of memory retrieval. LTPs (Long-Term Potentiation), memory traces, and target stimuli are all related to the process of memory formation and consolidation, but are not specifically related to the retrieval of stored memories.
