Presentation transcript:

1. Contrast two types of sensory information. 2. Describe the duration and working capacity of short-term memory. 3. Describe the capacity and duration of long- term memory. 4. Distinguish between implicit and explicit memory, and identify the main brain structure associated with each.

5. Discuss the synaptic changes that accompany memory formation and storage. 6. Explain how retrieval cues help us access stored memories, and describe the process of priming. 7. Contrast recall, recognition, and relearning measures of memory. 8. Explain why we should value our ability to forget, and distinguish three general ways our memory fails us.

9. Discuss the role of encoding failure in forgetting. 10. Discuss the concept of storage decay, and describe Ebbinghaus’ forgetting curve. 11. Contrast proactive and retroactive interference, and explain how they can cause retrieval failure. 12. Summarize Freud’s concept of repression, and state whether this view is reflected in current memory.

13. Explain how misinformation and imagination can distort our memory of an event. 14. Describe source amnesia’s contribution to false memories. 15. Discuss the controversy over reports of repressed and recovered memories of childhood sexual abuse.
