A

Episodic and semantic situated in the prefrontal cortex
Semantic= left
Episodic= right

34
Q

KF

A

Poor STM, good visual- good procedural

35

Q

Henk Schmidt Aim

A

Influence of retroactive interference

38
Q

Henk Schmidt Procedure

A

Random 700 names from Dutch elementary school- 211 became participants, ages ranged from 11 to 79 years. Renamed roads in Molenburg with numbers and had to remember names. Also did a questionnaire about how many times they’d moved

39
Q

Henk Schmidt Findings

A

Number of times moved was proportional to the accuracy of names

40
Q

McGeoch and McDonald Aim

A

Similarity of memories affects interference

41
Q

McGeoch and McDonald Procedure

A

Learnt 10 words until 100% accurate recall, then learnt a new list, then had to recall the old list

42
Q

McGeoch and McDonald Findings

A

Synonyms= lowest recall
Antonyms= 2nd lowest recall
No relationship= highest recall

43
Q

McGeoch and McDonald Evaluation

A

Artificial task, standardised
