Q

Implicit memory

A

information that you remember unconsciously and effortlessly 

22
Q

A

How to perform a specific task you don’t have to consciously recall how to perform these tasks

23
Q

Flashbulb memory

A

Vivid and do some memories the people create during times of personal tragedy accident or emotionally significant world events

24
Q

Rosie retrospection

A

working memory tends to delete the moon Dane or boring and only store the interesting into long-term memory

25
Context dependent memory
Is your refill of information while in the same context of the environment where it was acquired
26
State dependent memory
memories that are triggered by mood when memory was made in the same mood
27
Memory consolidation
Process where I bring convert short term memory into a long-term ones
28
Long term potentiation
Strengthening of a synaptic connections through repeated no action
29
Storage decay
More time that goes by the less we remember
30
Trace decay theory
Overtime I memories biologically degenerate
31
Retrograde amnesia
cannot remember things that happen before they got amnesia
32
anterograde amnesia
Cannot create new memories
33
Serial position effect
when retrieving a long list we remember first and last better
34
Primacy effect
Refers to better recall a first items
35
Recency effect
Better recall of last items
36
Retrieval failure
The failure to recall memory due to missing simulator cues that were present at the time the memory was in coded to help triggered a memory
37
Tip of the tongue state
The feeling that I memories available but not retrievable a
38
Encoding failure
Occurs when a memory was never formed in the first place
39
Interference theory
Some memories interfere with the retrieval of other memories for getting in long-term memory
40
Proactive interference
older memories interfere with the retrieval of newer memories
41
Retro active interference
New remembers interfere with the retrieval of older memories
42
Memory reconstruction
Approach to understanding memory as a cognitive process
43
Pseudo memories
False memories that a person believes to be true
44
Elizabeth Loftis and the problem with eyewitness testimony
Believe bias and suggestibility create the miss information effect
45
Distribute practice
Strategy of learning that makes use of smaller increments of study and practice over a long time
46
Rehearsal
Practice or repetition of studying increase his long-term potentiation
47
The testing affect
Studying technique that focuses you to use recall
48
Retrieval cues
Reminders associated with information we are trying to get out of the memory
49
Sensory associations
Sites sounds smells and taste
50
Context affect
Easier to retrieve memories in the environment in which they were in coated
51
Chunking
Process of taking individual pieces of information and grouping them into larger units
