Q

craik & lockhart’s levels of processing framework

A
  1. continuum of progressively deeper processing
    visual –> phonological –> semantic
  2. retention

Q

retention

A

a function of the depth of processing, the deeper you process it the better you remember it

15
Q

free recall

A

“tell me the words i just showed you”

16
Q

cued recall

A

“tell me a word i showed you that starts with my-“

17
Q

recognition

A

‘was “mystery” in the list i showed you?’

18
Q

implicit retrieval

A

“tell me the first word that comes to mind that starts with my-“

19
Q

encoding specificty principle (Tulving)

A

memory performance depends on the match between the context at encoding and the context at retreival

20
Q

if recall is better when the output cue matched the input cue. What does this support?

A

supports the encoding specificity principle

21
Q

recognition failure of recallable words (tulving & thompson)

A

Ss asked to recall or recognise target words

recall task better (encoding specificity principle) recall in same context, recognition phase you circle words, no cues, different context

22
Q

recognise vs recall tasks

A

recall better…CONTEXT

23
Q

the match between encoding and text context is import. BUT what does it depend upon

A

the type of memory test

24
Q

2 types of context?

A
  1. intrinsic = has a direct impact on the meaning of to-be-remembered word
  2. extrinsic = does not change meaning of to be rememberd word (environment, mood) affect recall but not recognition
25
Q

change of environment context affects…..

A

recall but not recognition

26
Q

what is recall?

A

involves self-generating retrieval cues

27
Q

development implication of young children and elderly in recall/recognition

A

perform much worse in free recall than cued recall or recognition.
implication for child witness

28
Q

repetition priming

A

refers to facilitation (better performance) as a result of prior exposure

29
Q

implicit vs. explicit memory test

A

performances on both tests are dissociated (different)

30
Q

episodic memory for amnesic patients

A
  • perform just as well as control for implicit/indirect test of memory (word completion)
  • perform worse than control on explicit (conventional) memory tasks
31
Q

amnesia

explicit vs. implicit memory

A

have impaired explicit memory but intact implicit memory (implicit does not require distinguishing between contexts)

32
Q

amnesia

memory binding

A

amnesics lack the ability to bind voices [context]with words when same voice used in learning and recall.
assumed memory is based on familiarity and recollection

33
Q

asuumed memory (memory binding) is based on familiarity and recollection. what are these?

A
familiarity = memory based on assesment of strngth [known response]
recollection = memory acquired by retrieval of context [remember response]
34
Q

Assumed memory(memory binding) is based on what?

A

Familiarity and recollection
