Encoding involves the input of information into the memory system. Storage is the retention of the encoded information. Retrieval, or getting the information out of memory and back into awareness, is the third function. Which one (1) of these functions do you think is the most important within the process of memory formation? Briefly explain why.

Your Answer: In my opinion, the function of storage is the most important process in memory formation, as I feel it is the most important part of my success as a student and as a future nurse. The ability to retain the large masses of information that I am learning on a day to day basis is a very desired ability. For example, being able to store something such as your father changing a tire during a family trip into your memory can be of great assistance if you find yourself in that situation without any other means of immediate information. In this case, that memory staying within one's long-term memory can be of great assistance. In addition, the ability to commit something from short-term memory into long-term memory is very vital in keeping important information in one's grasp, such as a nurse being able to remember the proper anatomy of a human when diagnosing potential harm of a patient.
