PS 101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Implicit Memory, Sensory Memory, Explicit Memory
Document Summary
Memory: the persistence of learning over time, through the storage and processed of learning. Information processing: processing the information that we learn. We send the information up to our brain, where it is encoded and then stored in the brain. The message needs to be encoded into neurons and then processed and stored in the mind. We put it in a memory bin where it is encoded 4. Then the memory gets placed in long-term memory that it can be retrieved from. The new other concept is a working memory- new understanding of short-term memory which includes the process of inquiring and visual special information and of the information retrieved from long-term memory. Visual encoding: imagery where you use mental pictures to remember ideas or things. A mental representation is a mental model of a stimulus or category of stimuli. Psychological products: different stimuli are like different languages in the brain, that is, iconic, echoic.
