Transcience: tendency to lose access to information across time, whether through forgetting, interference, or retrieval failure. Absent-mindedness: everyday memory failures in remembering information and intended activities, probably cause by insufficient attention or superficial, automatic processing during encoding. Blocking: temporary retrieval failure or loss of access, such as the tip-of-the- tongue state, more common in older adults. Misattribution: remembering a fact correctly from past experience but attributing it to an incorrect source or context. Suggestibility: tendency to incorporate information provided by others into your own recollection and memory representation. Bias: tendency for knowledge, beliefs and feelings to distort recollection of previous experiences and to affect current and future judgements. Persistence: tendency to remember facts or events. Including traumatic memories, that one would rather forget, that is, failure to forget because of intrusive recollections and rumination. Emphasized learning in the laboratory under tightly controlled conditions. Tried to eliminate all meaning from his experiments (using nonsense syllables)
