Whether potentially interfering information precedes (proactive interference‚ PI) or follows (retroactive interference‚ RI) the target information‚ memory performance appears almost always to be impaired. But does this mean that the target information is forgotten? The alternative to this storage failure (or unlearning/erasing) hypothesis view cites retrieval failure (e.g.‚ via

Theories of forgetting ’Forgetting’ can occur at any stage of memory Encoding (acquisition) - We may fail to ’remember’ as information was never encoded to begin with. Storage - Something may occur that interferes with our memory whilst it is being stored (e.g. during the consolidation of memory) - Something may occur that alters our stored memory - Our stored memories may spontaneously decay Retrieval - We may not have the correct cues required to be able to retrieve the information Forgetting information
