PSYC 101 Chapter Notes - Chapter 24: Gordon H. Bower, Richard Shiffrin, Procedural Memory
Document Summary
A fill-in-the-blank test can test your recall: recognition a measure of memory in which the person need only identify items previously learned, as on a multiple-choice test. A multiple-choice question tests your recognition: relearning a measure of memory that assesses the amount of time saved when learning material again, learning something more quickly when you learn it a second or later time. 24. 2 how do psychologists describe the human memory system: an information-processing model likens human memory to computer operations. The atkinson-shiffrin model focused only on conscious memories.

Rather, we split information into different components for separate and simultaneous parallel processing: automatic processing happens automatically.
