retreival failure- forgetting

• Research support Godden and Baddeley- pps were divers who were asked to learn a word list either under water or on land, half of the participants then had to recall the information in the same context in which they encoded it, the other half had to recall it in a different context, forgetting was higher in the different context condition
• Carter and cassaday- same result as godden and baddeley underwater study, pps were people who were asked to learn a new word list while taking anti-histamines or not, half the pps then had to recall the information in the same state that they encoded it and half the pps had to recall the information in a different state, forgetting was higher in pps who had to recall in a different state.
