Cue Dependent Evaluation
- Recollections of childhood become
fainter as people grow older.
- However, if they return to the area they lived in
as children, this often serve to bring the past
alive, supporting the theory

- Baddeley argues the effects of context
dependent forgetting only occur if the contexts
in which information is learned and retrieved
vastly differ
- E.g. info learned in a classroom and then
retrieved in an ice rink will be remembered
poorer than if it was recalled in the library

- Has been applied to real world
successfully such as helping the police
reconstructions based on cue dependency
- The theory has evidence to support it. E.g.
a study by Godden and Baddeley showed
that forgetting is influenced by lack of
retrieval cues present
- As divers recalled more in
the same environment as
the learning environment
- As divers recalled more in

- However a nummber of supporting
studies such as Tulving and Pearlstones
are lab based
- and involve artificial tasks so
they lack ecological validity
