Attention
Limited Capacity
-
- limited mental resources to use at a given time
- we have 7 storage boxes in our short-term memory that have an infinite amount of space so we must chunk information in order to remember it
- visual can be recalled for 0.5-1 seconds without attention
- auditory can be recalled for 3-5 seconds without attention
Shadowing
-
- individual repeats a message as it is given to them
- experiments have been done to test one's ability
- can repeat a story heard in just one ear
- attention will shift from ear to ear if story shifts from ear to ear

Retrieval
It is easier to retrieve through recognition than recall. If you have learned something it is easier to retrieve it on a multiple choice answer rather than a short answer.
Something is more likely to be retrieved when external environment is the same/similar to when you were first learning the information - studying in the same classroom as the test - using the same perfume while studying and while taking the test
