Cognitive Flashcards
What are the participant designs
Independent
Repeated measures
Matched pairs
Research evidence for MSM
HM- ltm damaged and this is due to different locations
Peterson and Peterson duration of stm with interference task to prevent rehearsal means stm lasts only 15 seconds
G and Kunitz primary and recency effects
Describe semantic and episodic
Semantic is strategic body of knowledge, facts, independent of time referencing and fragmented
Episodic is mental diary and is prone to retrieval cue failure, interdependent and continuous input
Research evidence for long term
Osteegard- boy who suffered damages to both but could still learn
And if prefrontal damaged- Episodic damaged only
Discuss the WMM
Central executive is attentional controller which can divide focus and switch attention into sub components
Phonological loop temporary 20-30 second verbal information and used the phonological store which is the inner ear and control system which is the inner voice
Vssp- the inner eye retrieval from ltm or encoding and spatial and verbal information
Research for WMM
Williams kids struggle with spatial prepositions meaning association between vssp and language acquisition
Klauer and zhao spatial and spatial interference and vice versa shows components of Vssp
Alternative for wmm
Needed episodic buffer which shows interrelation between stores this is due to not explaining evidence from verbal span which showed verbal and visual encoding are combined
4 stages TO Bartlett
Perception is how we remember Remembering is how we recall at different times
Imaging is what we encode and associate
Schemas what we retrieve
Individual differences in memory
Processing speed due to age
Memory span
Palombo showed episodic is either good or bad
