elaboration

Forming associations with existing memories, or forming images of existing parts {elaboration, memory}, transfers items to long-term memory and aids recall. Associations can be among items in short-term memory or to items in long-term memory. Images can combine items in short-term memory or associate features to items in long-term memory. Elaboration increases memory compared to rehearsal but takes more time.
