Retrieval practice effect refers to better long-term retention enhanced by active retrieval compared to re-studying, which has been widely demonstrated. However, controversies remain as to whether the underlying mechanism of this effect could be attributed to semantic elaboration. We investigated whether retrieval practice and elaboration were equivalent by observing the underlying cognitive processes of the two conditions using corresponding event-related potentials measures of associative memory and item memory. Behavioral results showed that retrieval practice induced better associate memory performance than elaborative study. For event-related potential results, an early old/recombined effect (FN400) related to familiarity and a late old/recombined effect (late positive component) related to recollection emerged in the retrieval practice condition, while both were absent in the elaborative study condition. An early recombined/new effect (FN400) appeared in the elaborative study condition, which did not occur in the retrieval practice condition. It could be inferred that retrieval practice promoted the recollection of episodic contexts for later associative memory, while elaborative study strengthened the familiarity of individual item. These findings suggest that retrieval practice and elaboration are two distinctive processes.
