A context dependent memory is a memory that you cannot retrieve (or retrieve most of it) without knowing the context of the memory. This relates to our project because we used memories where we went to the location of the memory and then from there we were able to think of most everything that occured during that specific memory. So by going to the exact door that we left during gym class we were able to realize everything that happened from there after. The door was the context and all of the dependent information that we retrieved from there after was things like day of the week, coffee flavor, music that played and much more. I know what my car looks like, but by Tess going back to my car and refreshing her memory of what it looked like she was able recalls things such as where people sat. All of these different contexts allowed us to retrieve some minor and larger details that occured during that specific hour from almost an entire year ago. A context dependent memory allows us to recall memories that we might not recall if we do not have one location or thing to trigger the rest of the memories connected to it.
