Document Summary
Chapter overview: models of how memory works, encoding (effectful and automatic, sensory (short term & working memory, long term storage, memory construction (misinformation and source amnesia, tips for improving memory. Study memory: memory recall recognition relearning persistence of learning over time, through storage and retrieval. Retrieve information previously learned & unconsciously stored identify which stimuli match your stored info measure of how much less work it takes you to learn info you had studied before, even if you don"t recall having seen info before. How memory works: encode storage retrieval. Encoding storage retrieval info gets into brain info is held reactivation and recall of info producing it in form similar to encoding (nothing comes back 100% like beginning) Atkinson-shiffrin model 1968 (memory formation: stimuli is recorded and held in sensory memory. Info is processed into short term memory & encoded through rehearsal (working memory) Info is moved into long term memory where long term storage (automatic processing)
