Myers PSYCHOLOGY Seventh Edition in Modules Module 25 Storage: Retaining Information James A. McCubbin, Ph.D. Clemson University Worth Publishers

Storage: Retaining Information  Iconic Memory  a momentary sensory memory of visual stimuli  a photographic or picture image memory lasting no more that a few tenths of a second  Echoic Memory  momentary sensory memory of auditory stimuli

Storage: Short-Term Memory  Short-Term Memory  limited in duration and capacity  “magical” number 7+/ Time in seconds between presentation of contestants and recall request (no rehearsal allowed) Percentage who recalled consonants

Storage: Long-Term Memory  How does storage work?  Karl Lashley (1950)  rats learn maze  lesion cortex  test memory  Synaptic changes  Long-term Potentiation  increase in synapse’s firing potential after brief, rapid stimulation  Strong emotions make for stronger memories  some stress hormones boost learning and retention

Storage: Long-Term Memory  Amnesia--the loss of memory  Explicit Memory  memory of facts and experiences that one can consciously know and declare  also called declarative memory  hippocampus--neural center in limbic system that helps process explicit memories for storage  Implicit Memory  retention independent of conscious recollection  also called procedural memory

Storage: Long-Term Memory Subsystems Types of long-term memories Explicit (declarative) With conscious recall Implicit (nondeclarative) Without conscious recall Facts-general knowledge (“semantic memory”) Personally experienced events (“episodic memory”) Skills-motor and cognitive Dispositions- classical and operant conditioning effects

Storage: Long-Term Memory  MRI scan of hippocampus (in red) Hippocampus
