  1. General Psychology(PSY2200 MBAC) CHAPTER O8: MEMORY

  2. Video LIVING WITHOUT MEMORY

  3. Information ProcessingA Model of Memory External Events Sensory Input Sensory Memory Attention Unconscious Processing Working (Short-term) Memory Retrieving Encoding Long-term Memory

  4. StorageImplicit Versus Implicit Memory Explicit (Declarative) With Conscious Recall Processed in Hippocampus Facts General Knowledge Personally- Experienced Events

  5. StorageImplicit Versus Implicit Memory Implicit (Nondeclarative) Without Conscious Recall Processed in other brain areas, including cerebellum Facts General Knowledge Personally- Experienced Events

  6. RETRIEVAL: A JOURNEY INTO MEMORY Video

  7. MemoryRetrieval • Priming:activation of a neural network • Context Effects:why did I come in this room? • Mood Effects • Mood congruence: tendency to recall memories that are consistent with one’s good or bad mood • State-dependent memory • Emotions effect what and how we remember

  8. The Sins of MemoryDaniel Schacter (1999) • Three sins of forgetting • Absent-mindedness: inattention to details leads to encoding failure • Transience: storage decay over time • Blocking: inaccessibility of stored information • Three sins of distortion • Misattribution: confusing the source • Suggestibility: lingering effects of misinformation • Bias: belief-colored recollection • One sin of intrusion • Persistence: unwanted memories

  9. ForgettingEncoding Failure External Events Sensory Input Sensory Memory Attention Unconscious Processing Working (Short-term) Memory Retrieving Encoding Long-term Memory

  10. ForgettingThe Forgetting Curve (Ebbinghaus)

  11. ForgettingInterference Proactive interference External Events Retroactive interference Sensory Input Sensory Memory Attention Unconscious Processing Working (Short-term) Memory Retrieving Encoding Long-term Memory

  12. CREATING FALSE MEMORIES A LABORATORY STUDY Video

  13. Improving Memory • Spend more time rehearsing or actively thinking about he material • Make the material personally meaningful • To remember a list of unfamiliar items, use mnemonic devices • Refresh your memory by activating retrieval cues • Minimize interference • Test your own knowledge, both to rehearse it and to help determine what you do not yet know
