the Remember/Know paradigm

The Remember/Know paradigm is a way researchers study how we retrieve information from memory, particularly in general knowledge. When asked about a fact, if you "remember" it, you can recall specific details about the context in which you learned it (like the time or place). If you "know" it, you recognize the fact as true but don't recall the specifics of when or how you learned it. This distinction helps scientists understand different types of memory and how we access knowledge about the world around us.
