Memory

Memory

1. Long-term memory: contains all of your knowledge.

   • Digit-span task, plus or minus, chunks.
     • Operation span: designed to measure working memory when its actually working.
       • Memory is not a single entity but is instead a system built of several components. (Working-memory system)

2. Long-term storage

   • Maintenance Rehersal: focus on the to-be remembered items.
   • Elaborative rehearsal: involves thinking about what the to-be-remembered items mean and how they relate to each other and to other things you already know.
   • Intentional Learning: deliberate learning,memory will be tested later on.
   • Incidental learning: learning in the absence of any intention to learn.
   • Shallow processing: person engaged in the material in a superficial fashion.
   • Deep processing: requiring thought to what the words actually mean

3. Retrieval

   • Retrieval paths: paths that can, in effect, guide your thoughts toward the content to be remembered.

4. Elaborate processing helps memory

5. Mnemonic strategies: techniques to help improve memory.

6. Memorizing

   • Understanding vs. memory (manipulating)

7. Aquisition, retrieval, and storage
