- 1LTM SYSTEMS ANTEROGRADE AMNESIA (hippocampus damage)=can't make new memories RETROGRADE AMNESIA (damage to tempora lobes)=can't remember past memories PERCEPTUAL PRIMING=exposure to one stimuli, influences another response to other. Coin-pizza=round CONCEPTUAL PRIMING=meanings, activate associated memories. Nurse-docotor duel recognition process... 1. Familiarity=sense of knowing something without context. fast/automatic 2.Recollection=remembering details of a memory. Slower/attention demanding EPISODIC MEMORY.... memory of events, just the gist constructive process prone to errors i.e false memories assessed by recall tasks/recog tasksSEMANTIC MEMORY MODELS
HIERARCHICAL NETWORK MODEL=series of hierarchical networks (taxonomy)
concepts=nodes
features associated with each concept
Hierarchical distance effect= sentences more time to process, as number of conecpt/features increases
Problems.....
Familiarity effect - confounds distance effect, reduces DE
Typicality Effect - category memember more typical than others
FEATURE BASE APPROACH=assumes...
-living distinguishable by visual/perceptual features
-not living by functional properties
evidence....
Brain damaged patient exhibit catergory specific deficits
Limits....
Too simplistic, only 2 categories
Multiple-property approach, subdivisions - 2SIMULATION THEORIES barsalou - semantic memory - simulation PROCEDURAL MEMORY... not conscious, through behaviour. Priming Implicit memory. I.e driving a car
