4
Encoding: Getting Information Into Memory
The role of ________ Focusing ________ ________ attention
5
Encoding: Getting Information into Memory
The role of attention Levels of _____________ Incoming information processed at different levels ________ processing = longer lasting memory codes Encoding levels: ________ = shallow _________ = intermediate _________ = deep
6
Figure 7.3 Levels-of-processing theory
7
Enriching Encoding __________ = linking a stimulus to other information at the time of encoding Thinking of __________ ______________ = creation of visual images to represent words to be remembered Easier for concrete objects: ____________ theory
8
Storage: Maintaining Information in Memory
Analogy: information storage in _________ ~ information storage in human _______ Information-processing theories Subdivide memory into three different ______ Sensory, Short-term, Long-term
9

10
Brief preservation of information in ________ sensory form
Sensory Memory Brief preservation of information in ________ sensory form ___________ – approximately ___ second
11
Short Term Memory (STM)
Limited duration – about ___ seconds without rehearsal _________ – the process of repetitively verbalizing or thinking about the information Limited capacity – magical number __________________ _______ – grouping familiar stimuli for storage as a single unit
12
Short-Term Memory as “Working Memory”
STM not limited to phonemic encoding Loss of information not only due to ______ Baddeley (1986) – 3 components of working memory __________ rehearsal loop ___________ sketchpad _________ control system
