Types of Memory!
This type of memory refers to chronological retention of the events in one’s life.
Episodic Memory
When trying to engage the short-term memory, this is the act of repeating the information to yourself or out loud.
Maintenance Rehearsal
This occurs during Stage 4 sleep. May be a sudden and persistent fear, causing screaming, confusion, etc.
Night Terrors
At this stage, approximately 30 after stage 2, large-amplitude delta waves are present in the brain.
Stage 3
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (float up stream)
Please, don't wake me
No, don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping
The Beatles
This type of memory is stored information that can be called forth consciously as needed.
Declarative Memory
This is the stage of transforming information for the nervous system to process. Might use auditory coding, semantic coding, or visual coding.
Encoding
This disorder is a prolonged and usually abnormal inability to obtain adequate sleep (may be caused by anxiety, depression, or over-consumption of drugs or alcohol).
Insomnia
This stage occurs during Stage 4 of the sleep cycle, the eyes move more rapidly while the muscles are more relaxed
REM sleep
Jitterbug

Jitterbug
You put the boom boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts
Jitterbug into my brain (yeah, yeah)
Goes a bang-bang-bang 'til my feet do the same
But something's buggin' me
Something ain't right
My best friend told me what you did last night
Left me sleeping in my bed
I was dreaming
But I should've been with you instead
Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't wanna miss it when you hit that high
Wham!
This type of memory refers to knowledge of language, including its rules, words, and meanings.
Semantic Memory
This is the ability to recall the last few items in a list
Recency Effect
This disorder is a permanent and overwhelming feeling of fatigue. May cause unusual sleep/dream patterns (such as temporary paralysis or hallucinations). May have sleep attacks throughout the day.
Narcolepsy
This stage is the “drifting off” stage, lasts for 10 minutes and marked by presence of theta waves.
Stage 1
But if by chance you're here alone
Can I have a moment?
Before I go?
'Cause I've been by myself all night long
Hoping you're someone I used to know
You look like a movie
You sound like a song
My God this reminds me, of when we were young
Adele
This type of memory refers to the permanent storage of learned skills that does not require conscious recollection.
Procedural Memory
This is the practice of grouping items together to make them easier to remember.
Chunking
This disorder is usually associated with children, and will outgrow it. Linked to stress or (in adults) use of sedatives. It occurs in both REM and NREM.
Sleepwalking/talking
This is referred to as the deepest stage, during which large, regular delta waves occur more than 50% of the time.
Stage 4
Look at this photograph
Every time I do it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red?
And what the hell is on Joey's head?
And this is where I grew up
I think the present owner fixed it up
I never knew we'd ever went without
The second floor is hard for sneaking out
.....
Every memory of looking out the back door
I have the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
Nickelback
This type of memory refers to the storage of information over extended periods of time.
Long-term memory
This is the ability to recall the first few items in a list
Primacy Effect
This condition causes frequent interruptions of breathing during sleep, which can be indicated by a specific kind of snoring (caused by a blockage of breath).
Sleep Apnea
At this stage, brain waves shift from low-amplitude, high-frequency waves to high-amplitude, low-frequency waves. Eyes roll slowly from side to side.
Stage 2
I’m so tired but I can’t sleep
Standin’ on the edge of something much too deep
It’s funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
Though we are screaming inside oh we can’t be heard
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
