© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. 6-2 Memory: Our ability to remember information Three-stage model of memory In this model, memory has three major components: (1) Sensory memory, which briefly holds incoming sensory information. Sensory memory: + iconic storage + echoic storage

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. 6-3 Memory: Our ability to remember information Three-stage model of memory (2) Working (short-term) memory, which processes certain information received from sensory memory and information retrieved from long-term memory. Short-term memory: Lasts seconds Capacity of 7 +/- 2 chunks of information

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. 6-4 Memory: Our ability to remember information Three-stage model of memory (3) Long-term memory, which stores information for longer periods of time. Source: Adapted from Atkinson & Shiffrin, Long-term memory: + Permanent method of storing memories + Unlimited capacity

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. 6-6 Short-Term Memory: Holds information before it is sent to long-term memory Short-term memory: Lasts seconds Capacity of 7 +/- 2 chunks of information

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. 6-7 In order to have a conscious memory, information must be retrieved from long-term memory and sent to short-term memory.

Long-Term Memory Semantic Memory (general memory) Episodic Memory (personal knowledge) Procedural Memory (skills and habits) Declarative Memory (factual information) Example: George Washington was the first president of the United States

Long-Term Memory

Procedural Memory (skills and habits) Semantic Memory (general memory) Episodic Memory (personal knowledge) Long-Term Memory: A permanent method of storing memories, with an unlimited capacity.

Long-Term Memory

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc Use of Retrieval Cues for Remembering: + An internal or external stimulus that activates information stored in long-term memory. + Encoded at the same time as the new memory.

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc Encoding Specificity: + Physical surroundings become encoded as retrieval cues. + Memories are enhanced when retrieval conditions match those present during encoding.

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc State-Dependent Memory: Physiological/psychological state is used as a retrieval cue. + Moving from internal to external cues + Our ability to retrieve information is greater when our internal state at the time of retrieval matches our original state during learning.

© 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc State-Dependent Memory: In the film City Lights a drunken millionaire befriends and spends the evening partying with Charlie Chaplin after Charlie saves his life. The next day, in a sober state, the millionaire doesn’t remember Charlie and considers him an unwanted pest. After getting drunk again, he remembers Chaplin and treats him like a good buddy.
