1. Retrieval and Context

2. Recall
Recall: a measure of memory in which the person must retrieve information learned earlier, as on a fill-in-the-blank test
Example- Remembering an incident that occurred a few years back
Anecdote- Today in Economics I had to recall info for my quiz

3. Recognition
Recognition: a measure of memory in which the person need only identify items previously learned, as on a multiple-choice test.
Example- Not being able to recall names of people from previous schools but being able to match a face to a name when given a list
Anecdote- I learned the names of the new characters in Star Wars VII from the trailer, and therefore I recognized them when I saw the new movie.

4. Relearning
Relearning: a measure of memory that assesses the amount of time saved when learning material for a second time.
Example- Learning new material for a class then taking an advancement class of the same subject and going over/relearning the same material
Anecdote- In AP Biology we learned about DNA replication, which we had learned about in Pre-AP Biology.

5. Retrieval Cues
Retrieval cues: a clue, prompt, or hint that helps trigger recall of a given piece of information stored in long-term memory
Example- Studying for weeks in advance and recalling the material when needed during the test
Anecdote- When I smell garlic, I automatically think of Italian food. The smell of the garlic is the retrieval cue for Italian food.

6. Priming
Priming: the activation, often unconsciously, of certain associations, thus predisposing one's perception, memory, or response.
Example- Walking through the halls of a school and recalling an event that had already occurred because of a poster that triggered said memory
Anecdote- Today when I saw blue or orange, I automatically thought Broncos, because of the game.

7. Deja Vu
Deja Vu: that eerie sense that "I've experienced this before." Cues from the current situation may subconsciously trigger retrieval of an earlier experience.
Example- Going through something and associating it with something similar that took place
Anecdote- I was talking to a friend, and I felt like I had the exact conversation with her before.

8. State-Dependent Memory
State-Dependent Memory: recalled when the person is in the same psychological or physiological state as when the information was first encoded or learned
Example- Being physically fit and having a memory from a time when you were in that shape and remembering that specific memory when in shape again
Anecdote- If I got sick on a plane, I may feel sick upon boarding the plane

9. Mood-Congruent
Mood-Congruent: the tendency to recall experiences that are consistent with one's current good or bad mood.
Example- Being upset but something that had happened and recalling that specific memory when you are upset again
Anecdote- If I had a fight with someone and was angry, then the next time I was angry, I might think of the argument.
