Area Study 2 – Memory TOPICS • Neural basis of memory • Comparison of models for explaininghuman memory • Theories of forgetting – strengths and limitations • Manipulation and improvement of memory
TOPIC 2/4 – Comparison of models for explaining human memory CONCEPTS • Atkinson-Shiffrin (1968) multi-store model • Contemporary multi-store model • Sensory memory • Short-term memory (STM) • Rehearsal and chunking • Baddeley and Hitch’s (1974) model of working memory • Long-term memory (LTM) • Semantic network theory • Serial Position Effect • Craik and Lockhart (1972) levels of processing framework
ACTIVITY MEMORY AND HOW IT RELATES TO INFORMATION-PROCESSING BY A COMPUTER Text reference page 290 • DEFINING MEMORY ENCODING STORAGE RETRIEVAL
ACTIVITY Do you remember? Try to remember the names of everybody (including your teacher) from your Year 2 class. Write them down and compare with others in the class. Discuss how many you remembered, reasons why and methods you used to remember them all. • INTRODUCTION TO MEMORY
Dot Point #2: • Atkinson-Shiffrin’s multi-store model of memory including maintenance and elaborative rehearsal, serial position effect and chunking • Alan Baddeley and Graham Hitch’s model of working memory: central executive, phonological loop, visuo-spatial sketchpad, episodic buffer • levels of processing as informed by Fergus Craik and Robert Lockhart • organisation of long-term memory including declarative and episodic memory, and semantic network theory Introduction to Memory – Overview videos • How does your memory work?

Area Study 2 – Memory TOPICS • Neural basis of memory • Models of memory • Theories of forgetting • Manipulation and improvement of memory
TOPIC 1/4 – Neural basis of memory CONCEPTS • Encoding Storage and Retrieval • Kandel’s research on the role of neurons • Roles of hippocampus and temporal lobe • Consolidation theory • Memory decline over a lifespan • Amnesia from brain trauma and neurodegenerative diseases 7. Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Dot Point #1: • mechanism of memory function: • role of neuron in memory formation informed by the work of E. Richard Kandel • roles of hippocampus and temporal lobe • consolidation theory • memory decline over the lifespan • amnesia resulting from brain trauma and neurodegenerative diseases including dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
