The fading of memories with the passage of time. Loss of autobiographical memories from a period in the past in the absence of brain injury or disease. Other memories get in the way of retrieving a desired memory Inability to retrieve memories for facts and events acquired before the onset of amnesia. Inability to retrieve memories from just prior to the onset of amnesia with intact memory for more remote events.

Forgetting can occur due to memory decay over time or interference from other memories. Encoding failures often happen when we're distracted and don't pay attention to details. Memories may also be forgotten if they are not reinforced or because new experiences interfere with consolidation. Furthermore, retrieval failures can occur when appropriate cues are absent.

Cheese’s. However, all of us have at times felt frustrated, and even embarrassed, when our memories have failed us. There are several reasons why this happens.

Short-term memory holds information briefly, with limited capacity suggested by Miller to be around seven items, while long-term memory, potentially unlimited, stores information longer through rehearsal and processing. Memories are not exact replicas but reconstructions influenced by current beliefs.

Memory traces, or engrams, involve neural changes associated with memory storage, aided by neuroplasticity. The hippocampus helps consolidate memories but doesn't store them.
