Q

free recall vs lexical competition

A

Lexical competition involves the competition between similar words during word retrieval or language processing.

Free recall is a memory task where you try to recall information without specific cues.

17
Q

____________ is a comprehensive sleep study used to diagnose sleep disorders. It records various physiological activities during sleep, such as brain waves (EEG), eye movements (EOG), muscle activity (EMG), heart rate (ECG), and breathing patterns to assess sleep stages and detect abnormalities.

A

Polysomnography aka multiple sleep graphing

18
Q

slow wave sleep is to _____ memory as spindles is to ________ memory

A

non-declarative; declarative

19
Q

one feature that amplifies effect of emotion on memory

20
Q

A

Narrative Rehearsal Hypothesis
