Answer: Reduce

Step-by-step explanation:

Cognitive process is the mental mechanism in which information about any event or process is learned through experience and sense. While information recalling process take place in mind,highlighted or major parts of information occurs instead of remembering complete information in detail.This mechanism is reduction of data through cognitive process.

According to the question, Jenifer is able to recall the highlighted parts of the trip only instead of telling all the parts due to reduction of information as cognitive mechanism is not able to learn all the sections of trip.
