Memory refers to the processes that are used to store‚ retain and later retrieve information; these processes are known as encoding‚ storage and retrieval. However with memory comes the natural phenomenon of forgetting which refers to the inability to regain‚ recall or recognise information that was‚ or still is‚ stored in long-term memory.

Highlighting chapters‚ taking plenty of notes‚ describing‚ and listing any relevant terms will help anyone with the amount of information they will be able to recall later.

Describing Trace Decay Theory of Forgetting * Trace decay theory can be applied to explain forgetting from both STM and LTM. * It is based on the idea that information creates a neurological trace in the brain‚ known as an engram‚ when it is encoded. This means a change has occurred in the structure of the brain. * Hebb (1949) proposed that whilst learning is first taking place‚ the engram is very fragile and liable to disruption. It grows stronger and less likely to be destroyed the
