“…In models such as the temporal context model (TCM; Howard & Kahana, 2002) and the Osth and Dennis (2015) model, changes in context produce an exponential relationship between the similarity of the current context and the stored context. However, decades of research have found that the forgetting curves for recognition and other memory tasks are best described by a power function (Anderson & Schooler, 1991;Deffenbacher et al, 2008;Donkin & Nosofsky, 2012a;Rubin & Wenzel, 1996;Wickelgren, 1974Wickelgren, , 1975Wixted & Ebbesen, 1991, but see Osth & Farrell, 2019and Osth et al, 2021, for exceptions in free recall tasks). A solution to this is to assume that context elements drift at different rates (Howard et al, 2015;Mozer et al, 2009).…”
