Elena spent ten minutes waiting inside an auto mechanic's workshop while her car was being inspected. Later, she was asked to write down all the items she could recall seeing in the workshop. Her list included: a stack of tyres, spanners, a car jack, cans of motor oil, and a socket wrench set. However, the workshop did not actually contain any motor oil or a socket wrench set.
Using your knowledge of cognitive schemas, explain Elena's recall of the workshop.
