Document Summary
Not all modes of interference are treated equal but must match the mode you are trying to remember. Old people take longer to decide in pi case of wm task if target is part of set of letters shown or not accuracy is same, reaction time is longer. Simultaneity is them being especially slow at multistep processes that involve integration of different information: inhibition proposal holds that they aren"t as good at inhibiting response (deficit perhaps in sas) Do worse at stop signal reaction time (ssrt) tasks. State-dependent memory holds that you remember things better if you recall them in the same state that you learned/memorized them in: drug, music, emotional state, environment etc etc. 2 theories for why tip-of-the-tongue (tot) phenomenon occurs: blocking or inability to recall correct word because you"re stuck on the wrong one. Sas isn"t able to move on to another word.
