memory Flashcards
1
Q
3 process in memory
A
- encoding = input
- storage
- retrieval = ‘remembering’ from LTM storage to STM and used.
2
Q
encoding-specificity principle
A
retrieval cue - encoding cue
results in better memorised material
3
Q
mood-congruent memory
A
- memories matching one’s mood are selectively retrieved
4
Q
3 stages model
Atkinson and Shiffrin
A
sensory model = milliseconds
WMM = 20 ~ 30 seconds
LTM = unlimited
5
Q
WMM
A
- Central executive
- Phonological loop (sound)
- Episodic Buffer (Events)
- Sketchpad (Visual)
6
Q
levels of working memory
A
the more meaningful the information is, the better memorised
7
Q
procedural memory
A
= skills, application
8
Q
declarative memory
A
- knowing ‘what’
9
Q
semantic
A
= language/facts/concepts
10
Q

11
Q

A
implicit = unconscious 'often procedural' explicit = conscious
12
Q
Explicit vs Implicit
A
implicit = unconscious 'often procedural' explicit = conscious
13
Q
retrograde Amnesia
A
unable to retrieve
14
Q
Anterograde Amnesia
A
= unable to form new memory
15
Q
perspective memory
A
retrieve for future
