Memory
Memory is any indication that learning has persisted over time. It is our ability to store and retrieve information.
Memory is the basis for knowing your friends, your neighbors, the English language, the national anthem, and yourself.

Information Processing Model
Three Stages of Memory
![Page 8: 1 Information Processing Module 21 2 Memory Overview Encoding: Getting Information In How We Encode What We Encode Storage: Retaining Information](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551bd0e3550346b4588b548e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Modifications to the Three-Stage Model
1. Some information skips the first two stages and enters long-term memory automatically.
2. Since we cannot focus on all the sensory information received, we select information that is important to us and actively process it into our working memory.
![Page 9: 1 Information Processing Module 21 2 Memory Overview Encoding: Getting Information In How We Encode What We Encode Storage: Retaining Information](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551bd0e3550346b4588b548e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Working Memory
A newer understanding of short-term memory that involves conscious, active
processing of incoming auditory and visual-spatial information, and of information
retrieved from long-term memory

Encoding: Getting Information In
How We Encode
1. Some information (route to your school) is automatically processed.
2. However, new or unusual information (friend’s new cell-phone number) requires attention and effort.
![Page 11: 1 Information Processing Module 21 2 Memory Overview Encoding: Getting Information In How We Encode What We Encode Storage: Retaining Information](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551bd0e3550346b4588b548e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Automatic Processing
We process an enormous amount of information effortlessly, such as the
following:
1. Space: While reading a textbook, you automatically encode the place of a picture on a page.
2. Time: We unintentionally note the events that take place in a day.
3. Frequency: You effortlessly keep track of how many times things happen to you.

Effortful Processing
Committing novel information to
memory requires effort just like
learning a concept from a textbook.
Such processing leads to durable and accessible memories.

Rehearsal
Effortful learning usually requires
rehearsal or conscious
repetition.
Ebbinghaus studied rehearsal by using nonsense syllables: TUV YOF GEK XOZ

14
Rehearsal
The more times the nonsense syllables
were practiced on Day 1,
the fewer repetitions were required to
remember them on Day 2.

Memory Effects
1. Spacing Effect: We retain information better when we rehearse over time.
2. Serial Position Effect: When your recall is better for first and last items on a list, but poor for middle items.

What We Encode Overview
1. Encoding by meaning2. Encoding by images3. Encoding by organization
![Page 18: 1 Information Processing Module 21 2 Memory Overview Encoding: Getting Information In How We Encode What We Encode Storage: Retaining Information](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551bd0e3550346b4588b548e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Encoding Meaning
Processing the meaning of verbal information by associating it with
what we already know or imagine.
Encoding meaning (semantic encoding) results in better
recognition later than visual or acoustic encoding.
![Page 19: 1 Information Processing Module 21 2 Memory Overview Encoding: Getting Information In How We Encode What We Encode Storage: Retaining Information](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062404/551bd0e3550346b4588b548e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Visual Encoding
Mental pictures (imagery) are a powerful aid to effortful processing, especially
when combined with semantic encoding.
Showing adverse effects of tanning and smoking in a picture may be more powerful than simply talking about it.

Mnemonics
Imagery is at the heart of many memory aids. Mnemonic techniques use vivid imagery and organizational devices in
aiding memory.

Chunking
Organizing items into a familiar, manageable unit. Try to remember the numbers below.
1-7-7-6-1-4-9-2-1-8-1-2-1-9-4-1
If you are well versed with American history, chunk the numbers together
and see if you can recall them better. 1776 1492 1812 1941.

24
Chunking
Acronyms are another way of chunking information to remember
it.
HOMES = Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior
PEMDAS = Parentheses, Exponent, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract
ROY G. BIV = Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet

Storing Memories in the Brain
1. Loftus and Loftus (1980) reviewed previous research data showing, through brain stimulation, that memories were etched into the brain and found that only a handful of brain stimulated patients reported flashbacks.
2. Using rats, Lashley (1950) suggested that even after removing parts of the brain, the animals retain partial memory of the maze. Mapping Memory

Synaptic Changes
Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) refers to synaptic
enhancement after learning (Lynch, 2002).
An increase in neurotransmitter
release or receptors on the receiving neuron
indicates strengthening of synapses.

Heightened emotions (stress-related or otherwise) make for stronger memories.

Storing Implicit & Explicit Memories
Explicit Memory refers to facts and experiences that one can consciously know
and declare. Implicit memory involves learning an action while the individual
does not know or declare what she knows.

Recognition
In recognition, the person must identify an item amongst other choices. (A
multiple-choice test requires recognition.)

Recall
In recall, the person must retrieve information using effort. (A fill-in-the
blank test requires recall.)

Retrieval Cues
Memories are held in storage by a web of associations. These associations are like
anchors that help retrieve memory.

Information is retrieved from memory through spreading activation
Semantic Networks

Priming
To retrieve a specific memory from the web of associations, you must first
activate one of the strands that leads to it. This process is called priming.

Memory Test #2• Now…write down any words from the
following list which were on the List 1:
• house, pencil, apple, shoe, book, flag, rock, train, ocean, hill, music, water, glass, school

Memory Test #2• Did you say that "book" was on list 1? Only
pencil and school were on list 1.
• Why do so many people think “book” was on List 1?

Memory Test #3• Memorize the following words (List 1)
• sheets, pillow, mattress, blanket, comfortable, room, dream, lay, chair, rest, tired, night, dark, time

Memory Test #3• Now…write down any words from the
following list which were on the List 1:
• door, tree, eye, song, pillow, juice, orange, radio, rain, car, sleep, cat, dream, eat

Memory Test #3• Did you say that "sleep" was on list 1? Only
pillow and dream were on List 1• Why do so many people think “sleep” was on
List 1?• Constructive Memory • This is an example of a false memory. Using
semantic encoding is good, but it can lead to semantic errors. Many people get a “false positive” error when a word shows up in List 2 that is semantically similar to many words in List 1.

Context Effects
Scuba divers recall more words underwater if they learned the list underwater, while
they recall more words on land if they learned that list on land (Godden &
Baddeley, 1975).

Context Effects
After learning to move a mobile by kicking, infants most strongly respond when
retested in the same context rather than in a different context (Rovee-Collier, 1993).

Déjà VuDéjà Vu means “I've experienced this before.” Cues from the current situation may unconsciously trigger retrieval of an
earlier similar experience. ©

Retrieving Incomplete Knowledge
• Tip-of-the-tongue Phenomenon– “The answer is on the tip-of-my-tongue… It
starts with Q….”
• Feeling-of-knowing Experience – If you don’t know the answer, how likely is it that you could recognize the answer? People are good at this. They “know it” but can’t retrieve it.

Moods and Memories
We usually recall experiences that are consistent with our current mood (state-
dependent memory). Jorgen Schytte/ Still Pictures
Our memories are mood-congruent.Emotions, or moods, serve as retrieval cues.
