Encoding facts!!!
The input of information into the memory system
What is the role of encoding information?
facts and experiences we can consciously know and “declare.”
What is ”Explicit (declarative) memories”
include procedural memory for automatic skills (such as how to ride a bike) and classically conditioned associations among stimuli.
What are “implicit memories”
Immediate, very verifiable recording of sensory information into the memory system
What is “sensory memory”
In Attkinson-Shuffrin‘s model of memory, what is the first storage memory
What is “sensory memory”
visual encoding, acoustic encoding and semantic encoding
What is “What are 3 types of encoding“
encoding that requires attention and conscious effort.
What is “effortful processing“
a type of thinking or cognition that does not involve any effort or deliberation.
What is “automatic processing”
A momentary sensory memory of auditory stimuli; if attention is elsewhere, sounds and words can still be recalled within 3 or 4 seconds.
What is “echoic memory”
The tendency for distributed study or practice to yield better long-term retention that is achieved through massed study or practice.
What is “spacing effect“
Organizing items into familiar, manageable units; often occurs automatically
What is chunking
unconscious encoding of incidental information, such as space, time, and frequency, and of familiar or well-learned information, such as sounds, smells, and word meanings.
What is “automatic processing“
Mental feats such as vision, thinking, and memory are single abilities - T or F
What is “true”
Memory aids, especially those techniques that use vivid imagery and organizational devices.
What is “memonics”
Enhanced memory after retrieving, rather than simply rereading, information. Also referred to as a retrieval practice effect or test-enhancing learning.
What is “testing effect”
Encoding goes into which storage system that then moves on to retrieval ?
What is long term memory
retention of learned skills or classically conditioned associations independent of conscious recollection
What is “implicit (nondeclarative)memories“
Without conscious effort, you also automatically process information about space, time and frequency. T or F
What is “true”
A momentary sensory memory of visual stimuli; a photographic or picture-image memory lasting no more than a few tenths of a second.
What is “iconic memory”
Encoding on a basic level, based on the structure or appearance of words.
What is “shallow processing”
Haptic, echoic, iconic, olfactory, Gustation
What is “sensory memory“
Helps us encode, retain, and retrieve information through both effortful and automatic tracks.
What is ”two-track mind”
“This is the third time I’ve run into her today!” This is an example of what type of automatic process?
What is “frequency”
Sensory input goes into sensory memory which then goes to which section of memory?
What is “short-term memory”
Encoding semantically, based on the meaning of the words; tends to yield the best retention.
What is “deep processing”
