hippocampus is a _____ structure in the brain
can neurons be produced here?
sub-cortical
Yes, new neurons are produced in the hippocampus, a process known as neurogenesis
standard model of systems consolidation:
fresh memories rely on the __________, older memories on _____________ and mature memories on ____________.
hippocampus; cortical strengthening; cortex
________ contains representations of different details and __________ binds these detail together.
cortex; hippocampus

free recall vs lexical competition
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.
____________ 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.
Polysomnography aka multiple sleep graphing
slow wave sleep is to _____ memory as spindles is to ________ memory
non-declarative; declarative
one feature that amplifies effect of emotion on memory
stress
_________ - repeated rehearsal or retelling of an event (especially traumatic or highly significant events) contributes to how we encode and remember it. may lead to _______ of the original event.
Narrative Rehearsal Hypothesis
distortion
