LTM Structures Flashcards
Which of the following is analogous to the double dissociation the book describes as support for the distinction between STM & LTM?
Select one:
a. Lenny has damage to the hippocampi and cannot form new LTM but normal STM whereas T. B. has damage to the hippocampi and has severly impaired STM but normal LTM.
b. Lenny has damage to the hippocampi and cannot form new LTM and has severly impaired STM whereas T. B. has frontal lobe damage and has severly impaired STM and cannot form new LTM.
c. Tyler doesn’t remember that he assesses insurance claims when he is Edward and Edward doesn’t recall making bombs when he is Tyler.
d. Lenny has damage to the hippocampi and cannot form new LTM but normal STM whereas T. B. has frontal lobe damage and has severly impaired STM but normal LTM.
Lenny has damage to the hippocampi and cannot form new LTM but normal STM whereas T. B. has frontal lobe damage and has severly impaired STM but normal LTM.
