Q

Each store is characterized by its Blank, Blank, and Blank.

A

Function (the role it plays in the overall workings of the mind), capacity (the amount of information it can hold at any given instant) and its duration (the length of time it can hold an item of information

Q

The abilty hold and recall trace information happens in the Blank memory (irregardless if the person is paying attention to the input). This info is lost in a half to 3 seconds typically.

Q

Any information that was attended to in the sensory memory moves into the next compartment which is called Blank memory. This is the major workplace of the mind. The seat of conscious thought.

25
Q

BLANK is what helps move along information from Sesory Store to Working Store.

A

Attention

26
Q

Non-rehearsed information is BLANK at the Working Store level.

A

Displaced

27
Q

The process that moves information from working store to long term sotre is BLANK

A

Encoding

28
Q

The process where information is moved from LT Memory to Working Memory is….

A

Retrieval

29
Q

BLANK memory store is the visual sensory memory and BLANK memory store is the Auditory sensory memory

A

Iconic

Echoic

30
Q

When people fail to notice change to their visual worlkd when the changes occur during a brief interuption or distraction.

A

Change Blindness

31
Q

Blank is when one task uses attention, less attention is available for other uses

A

Inattention Blindness

32
Q

Blank decreases quality of performance on each task.

A

multitasking

33
Q

The Working Memory has a limited capacity of Blank +or- Blank meaningul sets of data.

A

7 +/- 2

34
Q

Grouping items into useful sets is called BLANK

A

chunking

35
Q

Ways we loose inforamtion in the working memory are:

A

displacement (due to small size) and unused information will go away in 10 - 15 seconds.

36
Q

the process of saying something over and over will keep it in your working memory longer is BLANK

A

maintenance rehearsal

37
Q

The components of working memory are the Blank, Blank and Blank.

A

Phonological Loop (hearing and thinking about), Visual Spatial Sketchpad and Central Executive (thinking and analysis)

38
Q

The process by which a person actively thinks about soemthign in a way that ties it to other information in Long Term Memory is Blank.

A

Encoding

39
Q

Where meaningful, connected information is stored. This area has an unlimited capacity.

A

long term memory (LTM)

40
Q

These things are needed to help facilitate BLANK of the LTM: repeatedly thinking about the meaning of information (use it or lose it), adequate REM sleep, and amugdala induced adrenaline release (not required)

A

Consolidation

41
Q

Ways to be an effective learner:

A

-Make sure to understand material rather than just recognize it; -Repeatedly study the material in several sessions spaced over time; -repeat testing of both easy and hard material; -do not judge your knowledge of something immideately after studying; -get adequate sleep

42
Q

Memory is organized in a Blank of Blank.

A

Network of associations

43
Q

Blank in recall of LTM is not infallible.

A

Confidence

44
Q

Blank from LTM is a reconstuction of what is believed to be true

A

Recall

45
Q

LTM stores blank meaning - not details unless they are meaningful.

A

General

46
Q

Blank confusion is related to the origin of the memory or a specific event. Suggestion and imagination can influence your memory. This contributes to the “sleeper effect” in persuasion.

Q

ones generalized mental representation or concept of any given class of objects, scenes, or events is a

A

schema

56
Q

schemas that involve the organization of events in time rather than objects in space are commonly called BLANK
