Recall information refers to retrieving previously learned knowledge or experiences from memory without any external cues. It involves consciously bringing information back into awareness.
Recognition: Recognition is the ability to identify previously encountered stimuli or information among a set of alternatives. It involves conscious effort but relies on external cues or prompts.
Retrieval Cues: Retrieval cues are hints or reminders that facilitate the process of recalling information from memory. They can be internal (e.g., associations, context) or external (e.g., environmental cues).
Priming: Priming refers to activating particular concepts or associations in memory, which then influence subsequent thoughts, perceptions, and behaviors. It can facilitate recall by making related information more accessible in our minds.

Which cognitive phenomenon explains why we sometimes cannot recall information when we are in a different state or condition than we were in when the information was encoded?
