Key Term Explanation Pg
The process that transforms new memories
from a fragile state, in which they can be

which they are resistant to disruption

Hippocampus-controlled binding process 206

Cued recall 195
Involves close attention, focusing on an

else
Depth of Distinguishes between shallow and deep
189
processing processing
Elaborative
Involves asking “why?” questions 215
investigation
Elaborative Considering meaning or making connections

The process of acquiring information and
Encoding 188
transferring it into LTM
Encoding
We encode information along with its context 197
specificity
Free recall 195
