Document Summary
Are encoding and recall independent: does the context of encoding/recall matter, fisher and craik (1977) varied encoding task and. Used rhyme encoding (medium) vs. sentence encoding levels.

When the context during recall matches encoding, the item is better remembered. 3. physical state learned words while underwater or on the dock: better recall in same state. 4. physiological states: similar results when using an exercise bike. 5. emotional states: highly-hypnotizable subjects hypnotized into either happy or sad mood, better recall when mood is the same as during learning, during 9/11 recalled other traumatic memories. 6. psychological states: smoked cigarette with/without marijuana and learned words, waited 4 hours, smoke another cigarette w/without marijuana, for both encoding conditions, retrieved more in same condition than other testing effect.
