  1. 1What does memory depend on?
    1. AEncoding
    2. BStorage
    3. CRetrieval
    4. DSensory
    5. EDuration
    6. FCapacity
  2. 2[blank_start]Encoding[blank_end] - Putting information into a form that will allow it to fit your personal storage system.
    [blank_start]Storage[blank_end] - Keeping information in the brain so that we can use it later on
    [blank_start]Retrieval[blank_end] - Getting info back from memory so we can use it
    1. AEncoding
    2. BStorage
    3. CRetrieval
    4. DDuration
    5. ECapacity
  3. 3Who proposed the multi store model of memory
    1. AAtkinson and Shiffrin (1968)
    2. BAtkinson and Shiffrin (1986)
    3. CCraig and Lockhart (1972)
    4. DCraig and Lockhart (1927)
  4. 4What are the three stories in the multi story model of memory?
    1. ASensory
    2. BShort Term
    3. CLong Term
    4. DRetrieval
    5. EDuration
    6. FCapacity
  5. 5[blank_start]Sensory[blank_end] - very brief store - transferred to the next level if attention is payed.

    [blank_start]Long Term[blank_end] - Virtually limitless in capacity. Info needs retrieval to bring it back into conscious awareness

    [blank_start]Short Term[blank_end] - limited store of actively conscious memory. If the info is encoded, it transfers to the next level.
    1. ASensory
    2. BLong Term
    3. CShort Term
  6. 6Sensory Memory
    A store for incoming s[blank_start]ensory[blank_end] information. It prevents us from being o[blank_start]verwhelmed[blank_end] by the huge amounts of incoming sensory info. Our brain decides what is important enough to be sent to s[blank_start]hort[blank_end] t[blank_start]erm[blank_end].
    I[blank_start]conic[blank_end] memory relates to what we see and
    E[blank_start]choic[blank_end] memory relates to what we hear
    1. Aensory
    2. Bverwhelmed
    3. Chort
    4. Derm
    5. Econic
    6. Fchoic
  7. 7Short term memory
    Receives info from l[blank_start]ong[blank_end] t[blank_start]erm[blank_end] and s[blank_start]ensory[blank_end] stores - allows us to r[blank_start]etain[blank_end] info for long enough to use it. It has two key aspects
    D[blank_start]uration[blank_end]: refers to how long the memory is retained for. Holds info for about 12-[blank_start]30[blank_end] seconds.
    [blank_start]Capacity[blank_end]: Refers to amount of information that can be stored. Holds [blank_start]5[blank_end]-9 pieces at a time.
    1. Aong
    2. Berm
    3. Censory
    4. Detain
    5. Euration
    6. F30
    7. GCapacity
    8. H5
  8. 8Long Term Memory
    The place where info is e[blank_start]ncoded[blank_end] and s[blank_start]tored[blank_end]. As long as you know enough about the info, it can be r[blank_start]etrieved[blank_end]. Information is encoded by its m[blank_start]eaning[blank_end] (semantically) and stored in s[blank_start]emantic[blank_end] n[blank_start]etworks[blank_end] - a hierarchical pattern of nodes with links between related nodes.
    Duration - unsure how long they last. Maintained through p[blank_start]hysiological[blank_end] changes to neurons and their c[blank_start]onnection.[blank_end]
    Capacity - Hard to measure. Somewhat l[blank_start]imitless[blank_end]?
    Forgetting long term memories is due to poor r[blank_start]etrieval[blank_end] cues rather than capacity limitations
    1. Ancoded
    2. Btored
    3. Cetrieved
    4. Deaning
    5. Eemantic
    6. Fetworks
    7. Ghysiological
    8. Honnection.
    9. Iimitless
    10. Jetrieval
  9. 9Types of long term memory
    1. AProcedural Memory
    2. BDeclarative Memory
    3. CSemantic
    4. DEpisodic
    5. EImplicit Memory
    6. FExplicit Memory
  10. 10[blank_start]Procedural Memory[blank_end] - An aspect of implicit memory - for how to perform certain tasks, skills and conditioned responses
    [blank_start]Declarative Memory[blank_end] - Includes semantic and episodic memory
    [blank_start]Semantic Memory[blank_end]- Memory for facts, worldly knowledge and general e knowledge.
    [blank_start]Episodic Memory-[blank_end] Memories of events and experiences. Includes retrospective (past events) and prospective (things to do in the future)

    [blank_start]Implicit memory[blank_end] - Memories of skills, emotions, preferences and dispositions. Also called procedural or non-declarative memory; processed in the [blank_start]amygdala[blank_end] and possibly the [blank_start]cerebellum[blank_end]

    [blank_start]Explicit Memory[blank_end] - Memories of facts, names, images, and events. Also called declarative memories. Conscious retrial of memory - recall and recognition. The responsibility of the [blank_start]hippocampus[blank_end].
    1. AProcedural Memory
    2. BDeclarative Memory
    3. CSemantic Memory
    4. DEpisodic Memory-
    5. EImplicit memory
    6. FExplicit Memory
