Document Summary

Once the memories are encoded, how are they stored in long: concept hierarchies, associative and neural networks, implicit vs. Organizing related pieces of information from the most specific feature they have in common to the most general. If information is arranged like this, then activating a nearby node should make it easier to remember connected nodes. However, there doesn"t appear to be localization of single neurons for different concepts. Each item in memory is represented by a pattern or set of nodes. Nodes are activated simultaneously: referred to as a parallel distributed processing (pdp) models. Scent priming study (holland et al. , 2005) When listing what they said they were going to do when they went home, 36% said cleaning (compared to 11%) They also spent more time cleaning crumbs from cookies offered at experiment! Implicit memory: conscious or intentional memory retrieval, memory influences behavior but , no conscious awareness, priming tasks.
