Memory Retention - Information Recall

Perceptual filters influence our ability to remember.

Memories are stored via perception, which is influenced by a series of filters:

•    physiological (sensory)
•    emotional
•    psychological (interests)
•    knowledge
•    language

Everyone believes there is only one way of perceiving things. But perceiving always means interpreting and evaluating.

This is why nowadays perception is described as construction and remembering as reconstruction.

Only a recall stimulus brings learned memories into the focus of our consciousness.

A trained brain remembers better, also its owner is healthier.
