Learning and Memory

Learning and Memory

1. Learning

   • Types of learning
     • Operant Condition
       • voluntary behavioral response
         • Visouspacial learning
           • visually perceive objects and the spatial relationships among them.
             • T Maze and Radial Maze
               • use of working memory in animals
     • Classical Conditioning
       • Idea of paring items together in the brian
         • Neutrual stimulus
           • forces attention
         • Unconditoned Stimulus
           • produces response
             • Unconditioned response
               • is the response
                 • Conditioned response
                   • response learned through natural stimulus
                   • Conditioned Stimulis
                     • producing the learn response
       • Physcological response

2. Memory

   • Types of memory
     • Short Term Memory
       • Working memory
         • Delayed response task
       • limited to about 7 or less things at a time
       • Pre frontal cortex
         • focuses attention
     • Long term Memory
       • Implicit Memory
         • Memory without conscious recall
           • Procedural Memory
             • Motor skill, actions
       • Explicit Memory
         • Memory with conscious recall
           • Episodic Memory
             • Experienced events
           • Semantic Memory
             • General knowledge, facts
         • Declarative Memory
           • simular to explicit memory

3. Memory Consolidation

   • takes short term memory to long term memory
     • Flashblub Memories
     • Emotional Memories
