Multiple-Route Recall
Explanations > Memory > Multiple-Route Recall Description | Discussion | So what?
DescriptionMultiple-route recall assumes that there are separate ways that recall happens. In the direct route to recall, a cue leads directly to the triggering of a memory without any intermediate processing. In the indirect route to recall, the cue leads to thought, inference and the generation of possibilities. DiscussionMultiple-route recall assumes that single-route theories are just too simple. Jones (1982) describes two-route recall. Direct-route recall has been linked to Encoding specificity principle, whilst indirect-route recall has been linked to Two-process theory. So what?If you want the other person to recall something, consider the processing that will likely be required to bring it back to memory.
