The reason we forget is due to insufficient cues.
When we encode a new memory, we also store information that occurred around it (cues), such as the way we felt or the place we were in.
If we cannot remember or recall it, it could be because we are not where?

A
If we cannot:
1. Remember
Or,
2. Recall
it, it could be because we are not in a similar situation to when the memory was originally stored

The effectiveness of a retrieval cue depends on how overloaded it is (what does this mean), how deep the processing of the cue was and how well the cue fits the information associated with it?

A

The effectiveness of a retrieval cue depends on how:

  1. Overloaded it is (this means that the fewer the number of items associated with the cue, the more effective it is)
  2. Deep the processing of the cue was
  3. Well the cue fits the information associated with it
