Chapter 10 Memory & Thought

Memory The storage and retrieval of what has been learned or experienced.

The 3 Processes of Memory Encoding Storage Retrieval 1 2 3

3 Processes of Memory Encoding: Storage Retrieval Encoding: The transforming of information so the nervous system can process it.

3 Processes of Memory Storage: Encoding Storage Retrieval Storage: The process by which information is maintained over a period of time.

3 Processes of Memory Retrieval: Encoding Storage Retrieval Retrieval: The process of obtaining information that has been stored in memory.

The Three Stages of Memory Sensory Memory Short-term Memory Long-term Memory 1 2 3

Three Stages of Memory Sensory memory Short-term Memory Long-term Memory Sensory memory Very brief memory storage immediately following initial stimulation of a receptor. holds info for a fraction of a second

Three Stages of Memory Short-term memory Sensory Memory Short-term Memory Long-term Memory Short-term memory Memory that is limited in capacity to about 7 items, and in duration by the subject’s active rehearsal. holds info for about 30 seconds “Magic # 7”

Short-Term Memory Quiz 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Three Stages of Memory Long-term memory Sensory Memory Short-term Memory Long-term Memory Long-term memory The storage of information over extended periods of time. holds an unlimited amount of info

Sensory Memory Iconic Memory Echoic Memory Visual sensory memory Holds visual information for up to a second Echoic Memory Auditory sensory memory Holds auditory information for 1 - 2 seconds

Short-Term Memory Maintenance rehearsal Chunking A system for remembering that involves repeating information to oneself without attempting to find meaning in it. Chunking The process of grouping items to make them easier to remember.

Short-Term Memory Primacy-recency effect Working memory We are better able to recall information presented at the beginning (primacy) and end (recency) of a list. Working memory Another name for short-term memory.

Context-Dependent Memory Refers to improved recall of information when the context present at encoding and retrieval are the same.
