-There must be an effort to keep the sensory information long term
-You have no associate something personal with an object in order to make it easier to remember
-Memory is a process, just like a computer (Atkinson-Shiffren Model)
-Encoding- requires no conscious effort
-Storage- keeping information long term
-Retrieval- remembering information after period of time
-Visual memory lasts much shorter at .5 seconds, Auditory lasts longer at 2-4 seconds
-Information is kept in short term memory for a little time, is either forgotten or sent to long term memory]]> 2016-11-21 15:19:37 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/139120150 andrewzei5323 https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/139388020 -HM is an example of someone who had no long term memory because his hippocampus was cut out
-explicit memory- takes effort to remember, purposeful recall of information
-implicit memory- automatic encoding of memory
-eidetic memory- ability to recall things after very limited exposure to them
-long term memory consists of items that have been filed away to be recalled later, memories are either taken from working memory and put into long term memory or are forgotten]]> 2016-11-22 15:40:46 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/139388020 andrewzei5323 https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/140206929 -We got mnemonic devices as our term
-Mnemonic Device- techniques one can use to attempt to help improve their memory
-Possible IV- if they're given the mnemonic device, DV- how much percent of the words the group recalls
-Have list of 10 words, group that is given mnemonic device should remember more words
-The first letter of our ten words spell out the acronym LIGHTBULBS in order to make it easier for the experimental group to remember the words]]> 2016-11-28 15:24:13 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/140206929 andrewzei5323 https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/140538881 -Skinner says that we learn language through praise and association
-Some people believe that we learn language through the environment around us
-Up to 4 months, there is just babbling as language
-After that, one begins to get closer to stringing words together and eventually establishing language and speech patterns 
-Proactive- The old information interferes with new information
-Retroactive- The new information interferes with the old information
-Organization, and reducing interference are two important techniques for improving memory
-Concept maps are a good way to make meaning with the terms in order to better remember them]]> 2016-11-29 15:43:11 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/140538881 andrewzei5323 https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/141132060 Cognition is a term used to describe the process of thinking. It relates to our ability to perceive and think for ourselves. Cognition can be what makes us ourselves because cognition allows us to think for ourselves and have our own opinions, personality, etc
Our cognition isn't always correct as we often allow biases among other things to influence our thoughts]]> 2016-12-01 15:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/141132060 andrewzei5323 https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/141405791 Cognition- the ability to understand and process information in order to apply it to the world around us and ours perceptions
Cognition can be influenced by one's stereotypes and biases]]> 2016-12-02 15:19:19 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/141405791 andrewzei5323 https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/142037699 People who can't forget don't have the ability to repress their memories, which causes them to remember all painful experiences.
People who can't forget often have something called superior autobiographical memory. They remember most of their experiences and can tell people what happened on specific days

For example, one could remember the date and time and what they were doing years ago. 
It can be sometimes a good thing, when you know a lot of information, but can also be a bad thing as one can't forget unimportant information
It is often an automatic response as there is very little effort that goes into remembering small details from long ago. 
It is still a very new phenomenon in the study of memory as many new scientists are attempting to understand it
Remembering days can also trigger emotions that one felt on that day]]> 2016-12-08 15:16:26 UTC https://padlet.com/andrewzei5323/38s5bicwx39r/wish/142571595
