-Memory is a process: just like a computer
-Encoding-requires no conscious effort
-Storage
-Retrieval 
*Sensory memory --> short-term memory --> long-term memory
*Diagram of 3 Stage Memory Model 
*Auditory memory: Echoic (longer; 2-4 seconds) and Visual memory: Iconic (shorter; 1/2 second)
*Maintenance rehearsal = Rote rehearsal (repetition)
*Short term(5-9 Items because 7+-2)= working memory(work on it to keep it)
*Elaborate rehearsal (elaborate on it)
*Sensory Registers= "waiting rooms" 
sensory memory has a large capapcity but info only lasts a few secondskm

Long Term Memory: Lost for patient HM

Group 7: Priming

Varieties of Long-Term Memory-
explicit (declarable memory): with conscious recall
implicit (non declarable memory): without conscious recall

-Seldom used words
-Decay Theory: information naturally decays over time
-Interference Theory: PORN acronym; one memory competes or interferes with another
Proactive interference (old interfering with new)
Retroactive interference (New interfering with old)
-Motivated Forgetting: trying to forget something


LTM Interferences
*Reonstruction:
-LTM Changes over time
-Eye witnessess testimony, not reliable
-Elizabeth Loftus
*Schema:
-Mental script, use the past
*Cues
-Recognition: You can choose the asnwer
-Recall: Have to find answer on your own
-Serial Position Effect: The 1st and last president are known but the ones in the middle are hard to remember
-Mood Congruent Memory: when you're happy and you remember something and when you think of it again you become happy; mood is driven my memory

Language Theories
*Benjamin Worf:
-Linguistic Relativity
-Language determines the way we think
-Snow and Eskimos??
*B. F. Skinner
-Language is learned through association and enforcement
(praise for speaking)
*Chomsky
-Learn and speak language used in the environment

Language Stages
Babbling Stage
3-4 months
spontaneous utterances
goo, goo, ahh
One Word Stage
1-2 years old
use one word to convey message
Two Words Stage/Telegraphic Speech
-2 1/2 years old
use two word sentences
noun and verb

****Units of Language
*Phonemes
-Smallest units of language
-letters and their sounds
-change phoneme, change meaning
-cat, c-a-t b-a-t change meaning

*Morphemes
-Smallest units that have meaning
-A, I pre, ed, un

7 Tips to Improve Memory
1) Pay attention and reduce interference
2) Use rehearsal techniques (make meaning of everything to yourself; use EXAMPLES)
3) Organization (concept maps)
4) Counteract serial position effect (don't forget stuff in middle)
5) Time management (don't cram; start studying ahead of time)
6) Employ self-monitoring and over learning (don't over study; take breaks and get rewards)
7) Use mnemonic devices (ex. method of loci, peg-word (rhymes with numbers), acrostics, acronyms)]]> 2016-11-29 15:21:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ridaraz4894/2zxpdizs6toy/wish/140527783 ridaraz4894 https://padlet.com/ridaraz4894/2zxpdizs6toy/wish/141405515 Cognition: how our brain thinks and interprets information to make sense of it]]> 2016-12-02 15:18:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ridaraz4894/2zxpdizs6toy/wish/141405515
