Cognition Unit#7 - Memory by Jean Sauter https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12 Create a flashcard that applies what we are learning in this unit to a memory concept or fact. Please remember to include your name and concept description along with your flashcard image. The card should include all 3 items for effortful encoding - semantic, acoustic, & visual. Do not repeat examples already given from class or repeat another classmates idea. en-us 2017-01-26 18:27:44 UTC 2023-04-11 00:51:53 UTC hello@padlet.com Retrieval cues - priming jsauter2 https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/149712730 Priming refers to the process of activating particular associations to memories;  this is often unconsciously done

My helpful mnemonic hint is "There was an intrusion at the Major Baseball Stadium with a BAT." The bat already makes me think of baseball, so I made MBS about a place where I would use a bat. 
I also like to think that the intruder cracked my head with a bat. You can hear the noise and know that if you had a head injury, you wouldn't be able to remember things. ]]> 2017-01-27 16:58:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/149935265 Retrieval Cues -Deja Vu 17dunbarie https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150022431 Deja Vu deals with cues subconsciously triggering retrieval of an earlier and similar experience. 

Deja Vu involves an eerie feeling that you have been somewhere, said something, or thought something before. ]]> 2017-01-28 06:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150022431 Flashbulb Memories https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150062183 Flashbulb memories are caused by emotion-triggered hormonal events that we personally experienced. They have a significant impact on our long-term memory. We are more likely to clearly recall a memory of an emotionally remarkable moment. 

Those who were in New York during 9/11 are more likely to recall today where they were and what they were doing the moment the Twin Tower's were destroyed than those who just heard about the incident on the news.

Shallow processing; encoding on a basic level based on the structure or appearance of words.
A helpful reminder for these terms is to think about being in a pool. You don't think about floating in the water in the shallow end, but you have to constantly be thinking about keeping yourself afloat in the deep end.

We consistently relate to events that have occurred in the past. The information is encoded, stored, and retrieved by our memory. There are three ways info can be encoded; acoustic (sound), visual (images), and semantic (meaning). After it is encoded, it is either forgotten or stored. Memory can be stored by three types of memory; sensory, short term, and long term. The Atkinson Shiffrin model demonstrates this process very well.  A way to remember this information is to think about how a computer/phone function. It downloads information and encodes it, stores or deletes (forgets) information, and retrieves it when needed.

Contrasts with the step-by-step (serial) processing of most computers and of conscious problem solving.

I connect parallel processing to entering a food court in the mall or the lunchroom at school, you're hearing people's voices and smelling the food.

It can easily be mixed up with Implicit Memory so a mnemonic is If your ex broke your heart you would remember it. That reminds me of the hippocampus mnemonic "If a hippo camped on you, you would remember it"  so I know it is in the hippocampus.

My mnemonic for remembering this term is "an iconic visual". I think back to Marilyn Monroe because she was so iconic with her white dress and red lips. -Grace Watrin]]> 2017-01-31 03:26:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150429160 Retrograde Amnesia https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150432248 Retrograde amnesia is when someone is not able to retrieve information from their past. To help me remember this, I use the word retro. Retro is defined as "an imitative of a style, fashion or design from the recent past". This helps me because retrograde amnesia is where you can't remember things from the past and retro is designs for the past. - Abby Painovich]]> 2017-01-31 04:24:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150432248 Implicit Memory 17kocicort https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150551413 Implicit memory is not conscious memory keeping. It is recalling things that you already know. An example is when your favorite song comes on the radio and after hearing the first line you recall the rest of the lyrics. Implicit, since it is unconscious, is hard to demonstrate scientifically.]]> 2017-01-31 15:12:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150551413 Echoic Memory https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150564355 Echoic Memory is  a momentary sensory memory of auditory stimuli; if attention is elsewhere, sounds and words can still be recalled within 3 or 4 seconds. 

To help me remember the difference between Echoic and Iconic, I think of something echoing. If something echoed, it involves hearing. When something echoes, it resonates for a few seconds before it disappears. Same with Echoic Memory, where if your attention is elsewhere, sounds and words can still be recalled within 3 to 4 seconds.

The way that I remember this, is to think that Mnemonics help your Memory come to light, like the silent "m" in mnemonic. I just think of it as the "m" standing for "memory".]]> 2017-02-01 16:04:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150878796 Sensory Memory jjames181 https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150880911 Sensory memory is the extremely short memory that comes directly from sensational experiences and is encoded into short-term memory in order to remember.

I remember the different types of sensory memory by combining the name of the memory with the sense  you would experience the word with. When I see "Icon" in "Iconic Memory" I think of an emoji, which I would see be reading it with my eyes. When I hear the word "Echoic" it's easy to think of a person shouting "echo" into a cave and leaning their ear towards the direction that they shouted in, in order to hear the echo.

I like to think about how "echoes" are with sounds and the "echoic" memory has do with sounds.

When I think of congruent, I think of congruent triangles which are shapes so, my mnemonic for this term is "Your moods shapes your memory" - Madlyn Novak]]> 2017-02-01 20:42:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/150986792 Iconic Memory brandi_davis0516 https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/151027575 Iconic memory is known as visual sensory memory. Our eyes pick up a picture-like image of a scene and it stays in our working memory for a few-tenths of a second. Our iconic memory fades so quickly because we perceive new images instantaneously. 

I like to remember iconic memory by thinking of the word "icon." An icon can be described as a descriptive image, much like our iconic memory picks up images.]]> 2017-02-02 02:07:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/151027575 Automatic Processing 17klintayl https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/151038757 Automatic Processing refers to the encoding of secondary information that is important, but not vital to know.  This can include (but is not limited to) time, frequency, and word meanings.  It is implicit memory as it usually is not declarative. 

A helpful tool in remembering this is by looking at the first word automatic which by definition means working by itself without human control.  I know that I would never pay attention to the exact meaning of each word I type, read, etc..., but I know that I know it through automatic processing.   

This picture shows a little child touching an oven. The first time he feels the heat, his hand will jerk back, and he will know not to touch it again because of automatic processing]]> 2017-02-02 04:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/151038757 Three Measures of Memory 18solson https://padlet.com/jsauter2/rz0nngy6fm12/wish/151042452 The three measures of memory include re-learning, recall and recognition.
Re-learning is pretty self explanatory its just learning something that you previously had learned over again. Recall is remembering something previously learned such as taking a test in english class and trying to remember all the authors from all the stories you read. And last but not least Recognition, recognition is when you only need to identify an item, word or phrase to remember previous  information.

When I think of these three words together, I think of the phrase that goes with recycling: "Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle." Instead of recycling, I plug in the words, "Recall, Recognition Retrieval." Reducing and reusing are both ways to recycle, and recalling and recognizing are both types of retrieval. With the rhythm of this little jingle, it's easier to remember how recall and recognition are types of retrieval.

"Recall, Recognition, Retrieval"

It shows how "hierarchy" fits into a hierarchy. I also think about how you start "higher" and work your way down a hierarchy.

Chunking is organizing items into familiar manageable units. 
In order to remember what the chunking memory aid is, one can look at the structure of the word. It contains a couple different phonetic sections, similar to how chunking rearranges information into different items.

Ch-un-king. Their is the ‘ch’ sound, the ‘un’ sound, and the ‘king’ sound. 

This similarity has helped me remember that chunking breaks down information into smaller units.
