Here’s how I understand it: we are likely to pick up hard memory under any context (e.g we can identify our wife under different contexts), but when the memory is soft or fuzzy then we resort to gut feelings which is nothing but weak stimuli coming from the context of use. So for example, we are more likely to pick out an old classmate at a reunion dinner than at the shopping mall, simply because there are some subtle cues coming from the reunion hall (maybe) that triggers the gut feel. But, as you would have guessed, this can totally mislead us at times. http://cognitivedaily.com/?p=123
