Novel, high element interactivity information that is yet to be learned is likely to impose a high intrinsic cognitive load that may overwhelm working memory when it is being acquired via the borrowing and reorganising or randomness as genesis principles.

That same information, once learned and stored in long-term memory as a schema with its interacting elements incorporated in the schema, can be retrieved from the information store using the environmental organising and linking principle.

In contrast to the difficulty in processing the elements of that information when a schema is being constructed, once it has been constructed and stored in long-term memory, it can be retrieved as a single rather than multiple elements from long-term memory to govern activity. The multiple, interacting elements are embedded within a schema and it is that schema that is retrieved from long-term memory.

Processing a single schema as a single element is likely to impose a minimal working memory load.
