- 1BaddeleyMemory traces are disrupted or obscured by other information. We forget because of interference from other memories

Retroactive - What we have learned is interfered with by subsequent learning - 3Jenkins and DallenbackLearned lists of nonsense syllables then recalled 8 hours later. Participants were either asleep or awake during the period.
There was less forgetting from the participants that were asleep.
Does the timing of learning or recall have an effect on the results? - 4Baddeley and HitchAsked Rugby players to recall names of the teams they had played. Some had missed games through injury etc
Large number of intervening games was associated with poor recall, time elapsed had little influence on levels of forgetting - 5SchmidtMemory experiment in a naturalistic context
The number of street names participants were able to recall from their childhood neighborhood was affected by the amount of times they had moved - 6EvaluationLittle of the cognitive Processes involved
Most research done in artificial settings
How much of the forgetting is down to interference alone is unclear
