Lecture 12- Memory Using It Not Losing It

Question 1

Written free recall of words improved by

Answer 1

Scene cues at test

Question 2

What’s free recall

Answer 2

Minimal cue

Question 3

What’s cued recall

Answer 3

Additional cue

Question 4

What do global matching models believe retrieval is a function of

Answer 4

Match of cues with all stored memory traces

Question 5

What is content addressable memory

Answer 5

Find by knowing content

Question 6

What does the complementary learning systems model believe

Answer 6

Episodic memory representations stored in cortex, partial cue triggers pattern completion by the hippocampus

Question 7

Context is incorporated in the

Answer 7

Memory trace

Question 8

Cueing with context helps

Answer 8

Retrieve that memory

Question 9

Idea that a cue should match

Answer 9

It’s processing overlap with what was encoded

Question 10

Cue- dependent forgetting related to

Answer 10

Morris et al’s Transfer- Appropriate Processing principle

Question 11

Scene cues had a larger effect when

Answer 11

Studied videos were associated with fewer words

Question 12

Cues better when more

Answer 12

Diagnostic

Question 13

What did Polyn et al 2005 study with fMRIs show

Answer 13

Different types of events had unique patterns brain activity which were reinstated during recall

Question 14

Reinstatement started his long before recall

Answer 14

5 seconds before

Question 15

Different types of events have unique patterns of brain activity which are

Answer 15

Reinstated during recall

Question 16

People may also use what to trigger recollection

Answer 16

Mental reinstatement

Question 17

Hippocampus binds memory traces reflecting

Answer 17

Cortical processing

Question 18

At retrieval what initiates recollection in response to cue

Answer 18

Hippocampus

Question 19

Prefrontal cortex is involved strategically to

Answer 19

Organise and monitor

Question 20

Stored episodic memories include

Answer 20

Items and surrounding context

Question 21

Successful cues are

Answer 21

Diagnostic

Question 22

Successful cues overlap with

Answer 22

Items and surrounding context

Question 23

Cues can override

Answer 23

Encoding factors like deep processing, picture superiority: transfer appropriate processing

Question 24

Cue dependent forgetting more than

Answer 24

Passive decay

Question 25

What’s the testing effect

Answer 25

Testing boosts memory more than studying

Question 26

Testing may enrich

Answer 26

Semantic representations of a memory because additional associations are formed, giving alternative retrieval routes

Question 27

Wing et al 2013 had successful encoding activity showing that

Answer 27

People were encoding during the initial test or restudy

Question 28

When item is studied and later tested, the context is

Answer 28

Different

Question 29

Testing updates

Answer 29

Context representations so memory trace now includes both old and new context

Question 30

Larger range of potential cues can now trigger

Answer 30

Recall as they may overlap with either old or new context

Question 31

A difficult initial test is better or worse

Answer 31

Better | Because people have to do more mental reinstatement

Question 32

When learning 2 word-face and word-object pairs what had a stronger activation

Answer 32

Tested items

Question 33

When learning 2 word-face and word-object pairs what had a suppression

Answer 33

Competitor items

Question 34

Testing has a strong effect on

Answer 34

Longer-term retention

Question 35

Semantic memory emerges to some degree from

Answer 35

Episodes

Question 36

Older memories seem to be more resistant to damage to the

Answer 36

Hippocampus in amnesia
