Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -State-dependent memory is a phenomenon where people are more likely to retrieve memories that were created in similar states of consciousness. For example, if you learned something while drunk, you will have a higher chance of remembering it if you are also drunk.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mood-congruent recall, also known as state-dependent memory, is an alternative form of content-addressable memory that derives from the fact that emotions are encoded along with cognitions when memories form and consequently emotions constitute partial cues.

Detailed explanation-3: -State-dependent memory or state-dependent learning is the phenomenon through which memory retrieval is most efficient when an individual is in the same state of consciousness as they were when the memory was formed.

Detailed explanation-4: -You might be learning a fact and smelling a rose or poking your fingers into warm soil. Recall of your learning will be heightened when you return to the place you studied. The more sensory memory you have included, the more situational memory you access.
