Summary Introduction

Introduction

Encoding is the initial step toward creating a new memory which is crucial for allowing perceived items of interest to be translated into a construct, which can be stored and later recalled from short-term or long-term memory.

Retrieval involves subsequent reaccess of information or past events which have been stored through previous encoding in the brain.

Both the procedures are significant for the whole process involved in the creation of memory.
