PSY 103 Chapter Notes - Chapter 7: Implicit Memory, Order Of Operations, Temporal Lobe
Document Summary
Taught material so that he knew what people learned and when. He learned that longer lists take longer to learn. Procedural memory (habit learning) - memories of how to do something. Declarative memory - memories we can readily state in words. Delay of questioning - child"s memory is best at first and becomes less accurate over time. Repeating the question - children will usually change their answer after being asked the question multiple times. Type of question - open ended question = short, but accurate answer; suggestive question. Hearing other children - more likely to say the same thing as others even if it"s not true. Using physical representations - reenacting = less accurate; drawing = more accurate. Understanding a question - child who doesn"t know what a question means will probably say yes. You are asked to say what you remember. You are given significant hints to help you remember.
