## Abstract (arXiv)

The Tulving Test was designed to investigate memory performance in recognition and recall tasks. Its results help assess the relevance of the "Synergistic Ecphory Model" of memory and similar RK paradigms in human performance. This paper starts investigating whether the more than forty-year-old framework sheds some light on LLMs' acts of remembering.
