This article explores the three kinds of memory (episodic, semantic, implicit), three processes of memory (encoding, storage, retrieval), three stages of memory (sensory, short-term, long-term), and techniques to improve memory.

  1. Memory

  2. Three Kinds of Memory • Episodic • Specific event • flashbulb • Semantic • Explicit • Implicit

  3. Three Processes of Memory • Encoding • Visual • Acoustic • Semantic • Storage • Maintenance Rehearsal • Elaborative Rehearsal • Organizational Systems • Retrieval • Context dependent memory • State dependent memory • On the tip of your tongue

  4. Three Stages of Memory • Sensory • Short term memory • Long term memory

  5. Sensory Memory • Iconic • Eidetic imagery • Echoic memory

  6. Short-Term Memory Short-term Memory- memory system that retains information for a few seconds to a few minutes.

  7. Long-term Memory • Long-term Memory- memory system that retains information for hours, days, weeks, months or decades

  8. Transition from STM to LTM • Primacy Effect • Recency effect • Chunking • interference

  11. View of Memory • As reconstruction • Schemas

  12. Capacity and Limits to your memory • How much can it hold? • How long do we remember it?

  13. Basic Memory Tasks • Recognition • Recall • relearning

  14. Forgetting • Why do we forget? • Decay • Repression

  15. Amnesia Amnesia- the blocking of older memories and the loss of new ones -Getting hit on the head -Electric Shock - Major Trauma

  16. Explaining Amnesia Explanations for Amnesia- • Hit on the head could temporarily stop blood flow • Hit on the head could mix up brain’s electrical charges

  17. Types of Amnesia • Amnesia • Retrograde • Anterograde • transient global amnesia • Infantile

  18. Improving Memory • Drill and Practice • Relate to existing Knowledge • Form Unusual associations • Mnemonic devices
