-Accounts for output of Hippocampus
-Part of Limbic system - 11What is Bayley et al.'s (2006) Temporal gradient theory?-Graph shows Retrograde amnesia for episodic memories spans years
-Retrograde amnesia for semantic memories- modest apart from knowledge gained just before incident - 12What is Semantic Isolation of episodic memory?Where episodic memories (events) form into semantic memories (knowledge) over time
- 13What do Mayberry et al. (2001) and Adlam et al. (2009) state about Semantic Dementia?-Patients with semantic dementia find it difficult to access semantic memories, but episodic memories remain intact
