SHORT TERM MEMORY

Question 1

AN INCOMING SENSORY MESSAGE IS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO ENTER CONSCIOUSNESS, THAT MESSAGE WILL MOVE FROM SENSORY MEMORY TO THE NEXT STAGE OF MEMORY CALLED ?

Answer 1

SHORT-TERM MEMORY (STM)

Question 2

SHORT-TERM MEMORIES ARE HELD FOR UP TO _ SECONDS OR MORE

Answer 2

30 SECONDS

Question 3

ABILITY TO FOCUS ON ONLY ONE STIMULUS FROM AMONG ALL SENSORY INPUT

Answer 3

SELECTIVE ATTENTION

Question 4

IT IS THROUGH _ ATTENTION THAT INFORMATION ENTERS OUR STM SYSTEM

Answer 4

SELECTIVE ATTENTION

Question 5

WHO EXPLAINED THE SELECTIVE ATTENTION THROUGH THE FILTER THEORY

Answer 5

DR. DONALD E. BROADBENT

Question 6

A BOTTLENECK OCCURS BETWEEN SENSORY AND SHORT-TERM MEMORY, ONLY THE IMPORTANT STIMULUS WILL BE SELECTED FROM ALL OF THE INFORMATION IN SENSORY MEMORY TO BE CONSCIOUSLY ANALYZED FOR MEANING IN STM

Answer 6

SELECTIVE ATTENTION /FILTER THEORY

Question 7

TO DETERMINED WHAT’S THE IMPORTANT INFO BETWEEN SENSORY AND SHORT TERM MEMORY A KIND OF _ ACCOMPLISHED BY THE ATTENTION CENTERS IN THE BRAIN STEM

Answer 7

PRE-ANALYSIS

Question 8

WHEN A PERSON IS THINKING ACTIVELY ABOUT INFORMATION THAT INFORMATION IS SAID TO BE CONSCIOUS AND IS ALSO IN _

Answer 8

SHORT-TERM MEMORY (STM)

Question 9

WHO PROPOSED THAT SELECTIVE ATTENTION OPERATES IN A TWO-STAGE FILTERING PROCESS

Answer 9

DR. ANNE M. TREISMAN

Question 10

INCOMING STIMULI IN SENSORY MEMORY ARE FILTERED ON THE BASIS OF SIMPLE PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS INSTEAD OF MOVING TO STM OR BEING LOST, A LESSENING (ATTENUATION) OF THE SIGNAL STRENGTH OF UNSELECTED SENSORY STIMULI IN COMPARISON TO THE SELECTED STIMULI

Answer 10

FIRST STAGE OF THE TWO-STAGE FILTERING PROCESS

Question 11

ONLY THE STIMULI THAT MEET A CERTAIN THRESHOLD OR IMPORTANCE ARE PROCESSED, SINCE THE ATTENUATED STIMULI ARE STILL PRESENT, SOMETHING AS SUNJECTIVELY IMPORANT AS ONE’S OWN NAME MAY BE ABLE TO BE PLLUCKED OUT OF THE ATTENUATED INCOMING STIMULI

Answer 11

SECOND STAGE OF THE TWO-STAGE FILTERING PROCESS

Question 12

EVEN WHEN DEEPLY _, WHEN THE SELECTIVE ATTENTION FILTER IS NOT WORKING AT ITS PEAK LEVEL, IT STILL FUNCTIONS

Answer 12

DEEPLY ASLEEP, (TWO STAGE FILTERING PROCESS)

Question 13

SOME MEMOMORY THEORIST USE THE TERM _ MEMORY AS ANOTHER WAY OF REFERRING TO SHORT-TERM MEMORY

Answer 13

WORKING MEMORY

Question 14

REFER TO SIMPLE STORAGE AND WORKING MEMORY AS RELATING TO STORAGE AND MANIPULATION OF INFORMATION

Answer 14

SHORT-TERM MEMORY (STM)

Question 15

_ HAS TRADITIONALLY BEEN THOUGHT OF AS A THING OR A PLACE INTO WHICH INFORMATION IS PUT

Answer 15

SHORT-TERM MEMORY (STM)

Question 16

_ MEMORY IS MORE CORRECTLY THOUGHT OF AS AN ACTIVE SYSTEM THAT PROCESSES THE INFORMATION PRESENT IN SHORT-TERM MEMORY

Answer 16

WORKING MEMORY

Question 17

1. CENTRAL EXECUTIVE 2. VISUAL “SKETCHPAD” 3.AUDITORY ACTION “RECORDER”

Answer 17

3 INTERRELATED SYSTEMS OF WORKING MEMORY

Question 18

CONTROLS AND COORDINATES THE VISULA AND AUDITORY ACTION

Answer 18

CENTRAL EXECUTIVE

Question 19

ACTS AS A INTERPRETER FOR BOTH THE VISUAL AND AUDITORY INFORMATION

Answer 19

CENTRAL EXECUTIVE

Question 20

_ and _ information are themselves contained in short-term memory

Answer 20

VISUAL AND AUDITORY INFORMATION

Question 21

WANTED TO KNOW HOW MUCH INFORMATION HUMANS CAN HOLDS IN SHORT-TERM MEMORY AT ANY ONE TIME OR HOW MANY “FILES” WILL FIT ON THE “DESK”

Answer 21

CAPACITY: THE MAGICAL NUMBER SEVEN, OR FIVE OR FOUR GEORGE MILLER (1956)

Question 22

WHO REVIEWED A SEVERAL MEMORY STUDIES USING A MEMORY TEST CALLED THE DIGIT-SPAN TEST

Answer 22

GEORGE MILLER (1956)

Question 23

A MEMORY TEST IN WHICH A SERIES OF NUMBERS IS READ TO SUBJECTS IN THE STUDY WHOR ARE THEN ASKED TO RECALL THE NUMBERS IN ORDER, EACH SEARIES GETS LONGER AND LONGERY, UNTIL THE SUBJECTS CANNOT RECALL ANY OF THE NUMBERS IN ORDER

Answer 23

DIGIT-SPAN TEST

Question 24

PROCESS OF RECODING AND REORGANIZING THE INFORMATION

Answer 24

CHUNKING

Question 25

A WAY TO FOLL THE STM INTO HOLDING MORE INFORMATION, BITS OF INFORMATION ARE COMBINED INTO MEANINGFUL UNITY OR CHUNKS, MORE INFORMATION CAN BE HELD IN STM

Answer 25

CHUNKING

Question 26

SAYING SOMETHING ONE WANTS TO REMEMBER OVER AND OVER AGAIN IN THEIR HEADS CAN HELP THEM REMEMBER LONGER

Answer 26

MAINTENANCE REHEARSAL

Question 27

A PERSON IS SIMPLY CONTINUING TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE INFORMATION TO BE HELD IN MEMORY AND SINCE ATTENTION IS HOW THAT INFORMATION GOT INTO STM IN THE FIRST PLACE, WORKS QUITE WELL

Answer 27

MAINTENANCE REHEARSAL

Question 28

WITH THIS TYPE OF REHEARSAL, INFORMATION WILL STAY IN STM UNTIL REHEARSAL STOPS

Answer 28

MAINTENANCE REHEARSAL

Question 29

WHEN _ STOPS THE MEMORY RAPIDLY DECAYS AND IS FORGOTTEN

Answer 29

REHEARSAL

Question 30

IF ANYTHING INTERFERES WITH _ REHEARSAL, MEMORIES ARE ALSO LIKELY TO BE LOST

Answer 30

MAINTENANCE REHEARSAL
