Document Summary

Last week: video clip bollywood (different language) Ineffective encoding (lack of attention: you cannot remember what is not there. Info tends to disappear if it is not accessed: wouldn"t remember names of people in first grade, you don"t use it, you lose it. Retroactive interference: new information entering memory impairs recall of old info, eg. Learning a new software system gets in the way of old one. Because of the new word program, cannot remember how to use word star. Proactive interference (older word program: previously stored info interferes with ability to remember similar, more recently learned material. Retrieval failure: retrieval cue efficacy depends on how well it relates to the memory code, eg. classical conditioning* thought about by using dogs, you are given an example on the exam about a goldfish (using wrong cues) Maintenance rehearsal: rote repetition of material (only 7 at once)
