1Sensory memory is
- Aa very short-term memory store for information being processing by the sense organs
- Bthe memory process in the brain that takes information from the short-term memory store and creates long lasting memories
- Ca highly vivid and detailed 'snapshot' of a moment in which a consequential, surprising and emotionally arousing piece of news was learned

briefly absorb the visual stimuli, this is a type of- Asensory memory

- BFalso
4Short term memory is

8The system that processes speech production, and rehearses and stores verbal information from the phonological store is
- APhonological loop

15One key difference between sensory memory and short-term memory is that
- Athe information in sensory memory fades in one or two seconds, while short-term memories last several hours.
- Bshort-term memories can be described, while sensory memories cannot.
- Cthe quality and detail of sensory memory are far superior to those of short-term memory
- Dsensory memory stores auditory information, while short-term memory stores visual information
16The simplest way to maintain information in short-term memory is to repeat the information in a process called
- Achunking
- Brehearsal
- Crevision
- Drecall
17Short-term memory is sometimes referred to as working memory because
- Ain order to hold information in short-term memory, we must use it
- Bit takes effort to move information from sensory memory to short-term memory
- Cit is the only part of our memory system that we must actively engage to retrieve previously learned information
- Dcreating short-term memories is a difficult task requiring a lot of practice
18Which situation describes the use of episodic memory?

- DSamir recalled that a Pan Am commercial jet had crashed over Scotland
19A limited-capacity temporary storage system that is capable of holding and integrating information from a variety of sources into a single complex structure or episode is known as:
- Aepisodic buffer
- Bsensory memory
- Clong-term memory
20Semantic memories differ from episodic memories in that semantic memories
- Atypically include very personal or emotion-laden information.
- Bdo not include any information about facts or word meanings
- Cdo not include details about how information was learned
- Dinclude procedural information, like how to ride a bike
21Psychologists use the term _______ to describe memory for information that is able to be articulated, while _______ describes memory for information that aids performance of tasks.

22Memories can shift from Semantic to Episodic over time
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
23___________ might contain a specific memory of petting (and getting subsequently mauled by) a specific cat. Over time, this could incorporate into our ____________ of cats (general knowledge of what a cat is) to include the fact that they are vicious little killing machines.

- BSemantic memory, episodic memory
