What are the 3 parts of the information processing model?
What is encoding, storage, and retrieval
What is the stimulus that naturally and automatically triggers a response?
What is unconditioned stimulus
What is a stimulus that increases likelihood of prior response to later on trials

What is e.g., "I go to work so I'll get paid and won't get fired"
What is the misinformation effect?
What is memories may be altered after exposure to subtle information (error is memory construction)
