Detailed explanation-1: -Recognition is easier than recall because it involves more cues: all those cues spread activation to related information in memory, raise the answer’s activation, and make you more likely to pick it.
Detailed explanation-2: -Recognition is easier than recall. Multiple-choice tests are generally easier than fill-in-the-blanks tests or essays because it is easier to recognize the correct answer out of a group of possibilities than it is to have to dredge up the answer out of ones own head.
Detailed explanation-3: -Theoretically, recognition provides more cues for retrieving information from long-term memory as the correct information that needs to be identified acts as a retrieval cue and is therefore a more sensitive measure of retention than recall which provides very few retrieval cues, if at all.
Detailed explanation-4: -The fundamental difference in the two measures is that for recall the individual must describe the stimulus, which is not present, whereas for recognition the stimulus, which is shown to the subject, must merely be identified as having been seen or heard previously (Bettman 1979).
