Answer:

retrieval cue

Explanation:

Retrieving  refers to the recovering of information for use. In that respect, the working memory  maintains and operates on data retrieved from the long-term memory for temporary use. Therefore, retrieval cues involve words or other stimuli which help recover and bring to mind information stored in the memory system.
