Question

In ________ interference, information learned earlier disrupts the recall of information learned more recently; in ________ interference, recently learned information disrupts the recall of information learned earlier.

Answer 1

proactive; retroactive

Step-by-step explanation:

In proactiive interference, information learned earlier disrupts the recall of information learned more recently;

Proactive intrrference is set to occurs when you difficult to learn a new task because of an old task that had been learnt. When what we already know interferes with what we are currently learning – where old memories disrupt new memories. A good example is a friend old phone number and then a new number emerges and you are comfortable with the old one.

in retroactive interference, recently learned information disrupts the recall of information learned earlier.

Retroactive interference happens when you forget a previously learnt task due to the learning of a new task. In other words, later learning interferes with earlier learning - where new memories disrupt old memories. A good example is you learnt german in school and then recently you are trying to learn french then you tryto recall german to communicate with someone and only french is coming out of you.

Answer 2

PROACTIVE, RETROACTIVE

Step-by-step explanation:

Proactive interference is the way in which things learnt earlier interfer with the one learnt recently, when it is impossible to recall or retrieve them, although this can happen due to some certain reason.

An example of proactive interference is when a person find it hard in remembering the name of the of new phone he just bought after previously learned the name of his old phone. WHILE

Retroactive interference is the reverse of proactive interference, this happen when recently learnt information or things gets in the way of trying to recall older information. An example would be calling your ex- dog name with the name of the new dog making the new name retroactively interferes with the old name.
