Orientation

focused attention define
basic response to stimuli
selective attention
processing/filtering to takin gin relevant info
sustained attention
maintaining attention over time
alternating attention
switch attention btweent tasks
divided attention

contextual details
left hippcompaus
what part supports memosry
right hippocampus
location of objects
parahippocampal cortex
object features
perirhipnal cortex
short term memory is in the
hippocampus
long term memory moves into the
cortices
declarative memory (explicit)
what happened, conscious
categories of memories
episodic, semantic, procedural, prospective, topographical
Episodic memory (declarative/explicit)
recall info that is related to time and experiences
semantic memory (declarative/expliciit)

procedural memory (non-declarative/impllcit)
recall of hwo to preform tasks
prospective memory
