Memory retrieval requires externally or internally supplied stimulus {cue, recall} related to information to retrieve {cueing, recall}. Cue quality determines retrieval, no matter memory or association strength. Strong and internal cue is mood. Everyday experiences provide retrieval cues for most information. Good retrieval cues come from good encoding.
working memory
One working-memory part stores cues, and other part stores retrieved representations. Conscious thoughts retrieve further conscious representations.
efficiency
Working memory depends on cue efficiency. Efficiency increases with long-term-memory organization and cueing strategies.
Retrieval places activated content into consciousness. If access does not encounter target memory, recall does not happen {cue-dependent forgetting}.
