The 7 sins of memory
• Transience--the decreasing accessibility of memory over time. While a degree of this is normal with aging, decay of or damage to the hippocampus and temporal lobe can cause extreme forms of it.
• Absent-mindedness--lapses of attention and forgetting to do things. This sin operates both when a memory is formed (the encoding stage) and when a memory is accessed (the retrieval stage).
• Blocking--temporary inaccessibility of stored information, such as tip-of-the-tongue syndrome.
• Suggestibility--incorporation of misinformation into memory due to leading questions, deception and other causes.
• Bias--retrospective distortions produced by current knowledge and beliefs.
• Persistence--unwanted recollections that people can't forget, such as the unrelenting, intrusive memories of post-traumatic stress disorder.
• Misattribution--attribution of memories to incorrect sources or believing that you have seen or heard something you haven't.
