Unit 5 Flashcards
Memory
Learning through
-encoding
-storing
-retrieving
information
Explicit Memory
-Semantic and Episodic
-Facts, experiences, Non declarative
-EFFORTFUL processing
Where are explicit memories stored?
-Hippocampus
-Frontal lobe
Implicit memories
-Skills/ Classically conditioned associations
-Space Time Frequency
Non Declarative
Automatic
Where are implicit memories stored?
-Cerebellum-Conditioned/Automatic Reflexes
-Basal Ganglia- motor movement
Iconic
Sensory memory
-Tenths of a second
-Visual
Echoic
-Sensory Memory
-3-4 seconds
-Auditory Stimuli
LTP
-Neural Basis for learning
-Neurons released more efficiently creating more connections
Information/ Attkins-Shiffrin Model
Encoding, Storage and retrieval through:
Sensory Mem—->STM/WM—>LTM
Baddeley/ Maintnence Rehearsal
Working memory is a multi part system
-Language
-Visual semantic
-Short term episodic
Semantic memory
-Explicit
-Gen Facts/Knowledge
Bush: 3’s of memories
Processing- Encode, Store, Retrieve
Stages-Sensory/ST/LT
Types-Explicit, Implicit, Semantic
Episodic Memory
Explicit
-Past events/experiences
-Like an episode
Distributed practice
-Spacing Effect
-Massed Practicing
-Testing Effect
Forms of Effortful Processing
I’m champ!
Imagery
Mnemonics
Chunking
Hierarchy
Acronym
Mind Palace
Peg Words
Shallow vs Deep Processing
Shallow
-Acoustic/Visual
-Rapid Forgetting
Deep
-Semantic
-Meaning/ Durable
Serial processing
Performing one operation at a time
Opposite of parelell processing
Reterograde amnesia
Can’t remember the past
Anterograde Amnesia
Can’t make new memories
Reteroactive Interference
New information interfering with remembering past information
(Can’t remember past)
Proactive interference
Can’t remember PRESENT information because of past information
3 Measures of retention
-Recall
-Recognition
-Relearning
Repression
Freud
-Defense Mechanism
-Repressing painful memories to
-maintain Self control
-Minimize anxieties
What are the types of encoding?
Visual Acoustic Semantic
