2. You are not able to retrieve certain information in your long-term memory for different reasons. The book explains that a person can have encoding failure, where the information may have not reached long-term memory at all; storage decay, where new information fades quickly and then levels off; or retrieval failure, where a person cannot pull up a mental record of the information. In retrieval failure, a common interference is when you are trying to learn something while retrieving something else. Overall, I guess that the three main reasons above is why people sometimes forget things. I hope this helps!
1. Models influence learning due to aspects of the social cognitive theory. If the imitator relates to the model, the imitator may start imitating characteristics or behaviors of the model. Therefore models can influence what a student learns. Models can also be supportive and create an environment where the student wants to learn, or they can dissuade learning by their behavior.
