7. + Long-Term Memory Why is it important? Everything that is learned is stored in long-term memory Capacity of long-term memory Vast amounts of information may be stored for many years No known limits to capacity

8. + Encoding in Long-Term Memory Most information is encoded in terms of meaning Some information is stored verbatim-word for word Some information is coded in terms of nonverbal images Research has shown that memory for visually encoded information is better than phonologically encoded information

9. + Maintaining Long-Term Memory Rote rehearsal Repetition can result in long-term memory Only effective if there is intent to learn material Examples when there is no intent: What color is on top on a stop light? How many sides does a stop sign have? Which color is the top stripe on the US Flag? What direction is Lincoln facing on the five dollar bill?

10. +

11. + Example Cell phone at stop light… Lists when distracted…

13. + Maintaining Long-Term Memory Elaborative rehearsal Process of relating new information to information already stored in memory Meaning is assigned to new information and then linked to as much existing knowledge as possible

14. + Schemata A schema is a set of beliefs or expectations about something based on past experience Incoming information is fit with existing schemata Schemata can also influence the amount of attention paid to a given event

15. + Types of Long-Term Memory Episodic memories Memories for personal events in a specific time and place Semantic memories Memory for general facts and concepts not linked to a specific time

16. + Types of Long Term Memories Procedural memories Motor skills and habits Emotional memories Learned emotional responses to various stimuli

17. + Explicit and Implicit Memory Explicit memory Memory for information we can readily express and are aware of having This information can be intentionally recalled Implicit memory Memory for information that we cannot readily express and may not be aware of having Cannot be intentionally retrieved

18. + Types of Long-Term Memory Episodic memories Memories for personal events in a specific time and place Semantic memories Memory for general facts and concepts not linked to a specific time Procedural memories Motor skills and habits Emotional memories Learned emotional responses to various stimuli Explicit memoryImplicit memory

19. + Finish: Remember This!
