Memory

1. Encoding

   • Sensory (0.25 sec, lots of information)

2. Storage

   • Working (20-30 sec or longer if you actively think about it, 7 items per sensory system)
     • Central System
       • Visiospatial sketchpad
       • Phonological Rehersal
   • Long Term (unlimited time & space)
     • Declarative: medial temporal lobe, diencephalon
       • Episodic
       • Semantic
     • Non-Declarative
       • Motion: cerebellum
       • Classical Conditioning: amygdala
       • Implicit learning: reflex pathways
       • Priming: neocortex
       • Skills/Habits: striatum
     • Hippocampus acts as an index

3. Retrieval

   • Recall
     • Free Recall (impacted by primacy and recency effect)
