Document Summary
Idea (not visual; emblematically representative: knowledge representation 2 forms of representing things in your mind: imaginal. Imaginal code perceptionally bound using your senses; concrete way of perception representing information that directly conveys perceptual qualities. Ex: a song being perceptionally bound to a movie: propositional code abstract way of representation that conveys the features of a concept to its relationship to other concepts; connected abstractly. Things/words connecting to other things/words (health with words like exercise and sleep: dual coding hypothesis when both imaginal and propositional codes are used to represent knowledge, the starting propositional representation extends into other subtypes/sections. Using concept maps that are perceptionally bound. Scanning farther distances takes longer than shorter distances. Types of memory: encoding transforming info into a representation that can be stored in memory. Forms of coding how we represent & connect information. Visual: based on form or appearance: cat, moss vs. sky, okay. Acoustic: based on sound rat, bat, mat vs. sand, hand, land.
