Document Summary
Forming memory code: encoding, storage, retrieval, forgetting is due to deficiencies in any of 3 processes in memory. Maintaining encoded information in memory over time. Recovering information from memory stores: encoding: getting information into memory, capacity of storage term memory, chunk. Permits people to temporarily hold and: attention. = shallow processing emphasizes the physical structure of: phonemic encoding the stimulus. sounds like. input. in longer-lasting memory codes, levels-of-processing theory, semantic encoding. = intermediate processing - emphasizes what a word. = deep processing emphasizes the meaning of verbal. Proposes that deeper levels of processing result: deeper processing leads to enhanced memory, enriching encoding, elaboration ii. Linking a stimulus to other information at the time of encoding. Creation of visual images to represent the words to be remembered: easier to form images of concrete objects instead of abstract objects. Memory is enhanced by forming semantic and visual: dual-coding theory codes, since either can lead to recall. relevant, self-referent coding.
