When the memory retrieval process breaks down, people wonder
exactly why and how such a thing occurs. In many cases, failed
retrieval is accompanied by a 'tip-of-the-tongue state', a feeling
that an unretrieved item is stored in memory. Tip-of-the-tongue
states stand at the crossroads of several research traditions
within cognitive science. Some research focuses on the nature of
the retrieval failure. Other research tries to determine what
tip-of-the-tongue states can tell us about the organization of
lexical memory - what aspects of a word we can recall when we are
otherwise unable to do so. Still other research focuses on the
nature of the experience. Each perspective is represented in this
book, which presents the best theoretical and empirical work on
these subjects. Much of the work is cross-disciplinary, but the
topics concern strong phenomenological states of knowing that are
not accompanied by recall or recognition of the desired
information.
