memory

Memory

Persistence of learning overtime though acquisition, storage, and retrieval of information

Recall

Retrieving information that is not currently is conscious awareness but was learned at an earlier time

Recognition

Identifying items previously learned

Relearning

Learning something more quickly when in encounting it a second or later time

Information processing model

Compares human memory to computer operations

Involves three processes, encoding, storage and retrieval

Connectionism information processing model

Focus on multi track, parallel processing

Viewed memories as product of information interconnected narrow network, neuroplasticity

Three stages information processing model

We record you be remembered information as a fleeting sensory memory

We process information into short memory, where we encode it through rehearsal

Information moves into long-term memory for later retrieval (unlimited capacity)

Atinson-Shiffrin model’s updated concept

Working memory

Short term, memories, combined with long-term memory

Automatic processing

Processing in of information outside of conscious awareness is address

Dual track memory system

Explicit memories (declarative memories)

Of conscious facts and experiences encoded through conscious, effortful processing

Implicit memories (non-declarative memories)

That from though atomic processing of bypass the conscious encoding

Iconic memory

Momentary picture-image memory

Echoic memory

Momentary sound memory

Chucking

Organization of item into familiar, manageable units, often occur automatically

Mnemonic

Memory aid, especially techniques that use vivid imagery in organizational devices

Hierarchies

Organization of items into a board categories that are divided in subdivided into narrow concepts and facts

Spacing effect

Encoding is more effective when it is speed overtime

Massed practice

Produce speedy short time, learning and feeling of confidence

Distributed practice

Products better long-term recall

Shallow processing

Encoding information on a very basic level, (a words letter) or a more intermediate level (a word’s sound)

Deep processing

Encodes information semantically based on word meaning

Self reference effect

If the information towards you relates to oneself
