AGE AND BEHAVIOR: RETRIEVING MEMORIES
This chapter, the last of the four-chapter sequence on learning and memory, focuses on retrieval from memory. Retrieval is thought basic to recall—it is a process whereby items of information are brought up from the memory store so that they can be used. A failure of retrieval is seen with the experience, "I have it at the tip of my tongue, I know his name but I can't come up with it now." Later in conversation the name is recalled. The memory is in storage, but it can't be retrieved at the moment of need.
A major question in aging research is whether it is primarily impairment of retrieval mechanisms or impairment of storage itself that accounts for age decrements in recall. If the problem is storage, the name is forgotten and can never be recalled. The information is no longer available. If the problem is retrieval and not storage, then the information is available but not accessible (Tulving and Pearlstone, 1966). Retrieval is the access mechanism.
Recall memory is said to involve the search and retrieval of information in storage. It is as if there is a large bank of information, and to recall any part of it, a search is necessary; then, the found information must be retrieved. Recognition memory, on the other hand, is thought not to involve retrieval. All that is required is a matching of the information in storage with the information in the environment. (There are other views, e.g., Tulving and Thomson [1973], but in the main, this is the prevailing one.) This is an example of a typical question bearing on recall memory: Who was the third President of the United States? The correct answer requires a "search of the data bank" and a "retrieval" of the information, Thomas Jefferson. Here is a question bearing on recognition memory: Among these five names, which one is of the third President of the United States? A "match" is required; retrieval is not thought of as part of the processes.
