Memory
Karten in diesem Stapel (21)
- 1Evaluate core theory+ Other research supports idea of limited capacity in STM.
- others suggest that STM & LTM are far more complicated.
- Places too much emphasis on rehearsal e.g. You don't have to witness car crash over and over again to remember it. - 2Evaluate core studyLacks ecological validity-p as its not like anything you would do in real life.
Lacks construct validity as memory is more complex than just recalling ads.
Experiment have demand characteristics and the participants may have wanted to please the researcher and concentrated harder thus change results. - 3Explain alternate theory- levels of processingWe remember things that have a meaning to us.
Shallow- notice the general but not specific e.g. You notice the lights turn red in car but not colour of cars that stopped.
Deep- you notice and remember things that have a meaning for you e.g. Certain billboard ads. - 4Explain keys points of levels of processingNo different stores for memory.
Time, capacity and duration are of no importance in this model. The important thing is whether you give something a meaning. - 5How can we apply memory to commercial uses?Where things are placed in a shop will influence whether you buy them or not. E.g. If at front you will see them first and want it.
- 6How can we use memory for old age?Alternate theory says we remember things through meaning, so by using things with older people that had meaning to them in their youth, you are helping them to retain those memories. E.g. Music, Black Country museum.
- 7How can we use memory for revision and memory aids? 1) Memory cuesCues: once in LTM CDs can help access inflo e.g. Smells. This can be used in police reconstruction- retracing steps to find something
- 82) MneumonicsIt's is a little saying that reminds you of something else.p e.g. A rhyme to remember SOH CAH TOA for maths.
- 93) ContextResearch suggest you remember things better if you recall them in the same place at where you learned them e.g. Use same pen in an exam as you did for revision.
- 104) Mind MapsThese use colour and diagrams to help recall info
- 115) ImageryUsing images instead of words help remember info.
- 12What is memory?Memory is an umbrella term for the mental process involved in storing and retrieving information.
- 13What is information processing?The idea that data is processed in a number of stages.
- 14Explain 5 stages of info processingInput- info enters memory through five senses.
Encoding- putting info into format memory can keep.
Storage- where info is kept until needed.
Retrieval- try and get the info back but it's not always possible.
Output-found the info and want to share it e.g. Tell people - 15What is meant by forgetting?It means the loss of ability to recall something previously learnt.
- 16Explain the two main issues with forgetting ( think AA ).Accessibility prob- you can't get the info ate time when you want it.
Availability prob- when the info you want is no longer there. If you don't use it often enough it will decay sometimes as a result of accident or illness. - 17Define the core theory Remember the diagram too!!!!We input info through our senses. If we pay attention up the info will go into STM. If you rehearse it it will stay in STM for brief while. Repeated rehearsal puts info in LTM.
- 18Explain the capacity and duration of STM.Capacity is 7+/-2 items. Duration is 10-20 secs.
Repeated rehearsal of 30 secs or more outs info in LTM - 19Explain displacement and where it occurs.Once STM is full info is displaced (pushed out) on a FIFO basis. You remember what went in first as you had time to rehearse. Info is kept alive in STM by rehearsal otherwise new info will replace it.
- 20Explain capacity and duration for LTM.Capacity- unlimited
Duration- mins, secs, days, months, years. - 21What is decay and where does it occur?Decay happens in LTM + STM as a result of info fading due tot it not being used.
