Memory, Bias, and Post-hockery

Memory – three Types  Sensory  short duration (the initial ms)  large capacity (unlimited?)  Short-term  short duration (seconds to minute)  small capacity (magic number 7±2)  Long-term  long duration (days, months, years)  large capacity (unlimited?)

Memory – Processes and Biases  Encode – translating information into memory Store – retention of information over time Recall – retrieving the stored information Motivation – your focus and attention is selective Emotion! – strength, clarity, and valence

Memory – Processes and Biases Encode – translating information into memory.  Store – retention of information over time Recall – retrieving the stored information Misinformation – “post-event information effect” Time – memory can erode over time

Memory – Processes and Biases Encode – translating information into memory Store – retention of information over time  Recall – retrieving the stored information Emotion! – “mood congruence” Leading Questions Overconfidence

Post-hockery  Humans have a tendency to interpret new information in a way that confirms prior beliefs
