Unit 7: Human Memory

Memory: 3 basic questions psychologists study today: 1.How does information get into memory? 2.How is information maintained in memory? 3.How is information pulled back out of memory?

3 Key Processes in Memory Encoding, Storage, and Retrieval CPU: keyboarding, drive/saving, opening a file –What are the issues with the CPU analogy?

The Filing Cabinet Analogy Putting it into a manila folder, placing it in the drawer, opening the drawer and getting it out

Info Processing Example of Memory (to be taught in more detail later) Selective Attention Model –First think, “What does attention have to do with memory?” 1.Whether stimuli are screened out earlier or later Location of attention filter may not be fixed Ex: cocktail party effect

Cocktail Party Effect: Does the filter happen earlier or later?

Encoding

Attention = _________ filter –Where is filter located? Early during sensory input or later during processing?? Sensory Detection Recognition of meaning Response selection Response Stimulus Early-selection models place the filter here Late-selection models place the filter here

Location of filter depends on “cognitive load” Multi-tasking Is it possible for you to actually multitask?

Encoding is… getting the info in 1.______________ – enormous amounts of info encoded without thinking Space Time Frequency Well-learned

Encoding must also be… 2. _______________: –Boost memory through rehearsal:

Is it only ever one or the other? NO! –Effortful can become automatic through ____________

Principles of Remembering (encoding) The more repetition one day, the less required to relearn the next. –The amount of something remembered depends on the amount of time spent learning Overlearning
