Question
Answer
show is the kind of processing that draws heavily on our knowledge, expectations, and past experiences, as compared to the input information itself.  
🗑
Bottom-up processing   show
🗑
The distinction between serial versus parallel processing   show
🗑
show is the memory store very briefly that contains perceptual “copies” called icons or echoes  
🗑
Sperling’s whole-report procedure for assessing memory underestimated its capacity because   show
🗑
template matching   show
🗑
feature analysis   show
🗑
prototype   show
🗑
show All of the information we are actively thinking about right now  
🗑
show information more efficiently is the way to most easily get more information into your working memory.  
🗑
show is to prevent rehearsal  
🗑
Declarative knowledge   show
🗑
show (“knowing how”) is knowledge of how to perform cognitive or motor skills.  
🗑
show is long-term retention of specific events in one’s life  
🗑
declarative memory   show
🗑
When you learn a skill such as keyboarding knowledge is   show
🗑
show that cognitive scientists give more causal status to internal processes than do behavioral psychologists.  
🗑
The cocktail party phenomenon is replicated in the laboratory by studies using   show
🗑
show a memory test where we must both generate the response and recognize that it is correct  
🗑
show are strategies for more efficient encoding in memory  
🗑
show The general principle that recall will in part be a function of the similarity of the context at encoding and retrieval  
🗑
show far less reliable than most people believe.  
🗑
Most mnemonic techniques   show
🗑
show the organization that describes the sequences of phrases in a sentence as it is actually spoken.  
🗑
show the underlying structure that specifies the meaning of a sentence.  
🗑
show the smallest unit of language that has meaning.  
🗑
Metacognition   show
🗑
show the tendency to think of objects as functioning in a particular way and failing to perceive other ways the object might be useful.  
🗑
Set effects   show
🗑
show The idea that language leads us to perceive and think about the world in particular ways is called the  
🗑
show the fact that children produce sentences which they have never heard is taken as.  
🗑
show appears to be at best only a small part of language learning. Learning a language is very much a matter of learning the set of rules which governs the use of language.  
🗑
Code-switching   show

Phonemic restoration   show
🗑
The primary function of pattern recognition   show
🗑
Backward masking studies have been very helpful in   show
🗑
The backward masking studies have been used to confirm   show
🗑
The primary problem for template theories of pattern recognition is   show
🗑
show the structural component of structural theories  
🗑
show the smaller (compared to template theory) amount of information needed to recognize large numbers of patterns  
🗑
show nonshadowed material is processed for some meaning.  
🗑
In the secondary task technique   show
🗑
Capacity theory of attention argues   show
🗑
In proactive interference   show
🗑
show memory loss for previously learned information due to interference by recently learned information.  
🗑
show monkeys choosing between pairs of objects differing physically.  
🗑
show a language feature true of all language users.  
🗑
show The single-word utterances of infants  
🗑
show an innate structure that predisposes humans to learning language.  
🗑
show Bandura’s term to refer to the extent to which a person believes he or she can accomplish some behavioral task to produce desirable consequences.  
🗑
show Ebbinghaus, his stimulus materials in memory experiments because they contained no inherent meaning for him.

capacity of the short-term store   show
🗑
show the CS slightly precedes the US  
🗑
The Law of Effect states   show
🗑
trial and error   show
🗑
show If a conditioned stimulus is presented by itself following conditioning, the response previously conditioned to it will decrease in strength.  
🗑

🗑
unconditioned response   show
🗑
show An initially neutral stimulus that comes to elicit responding as a result of conditioning  
🗑
conditioned response (CR)   show
🗑
show If a tone is paired with a light and then the light is paired with food, the tone will come to elicit salivation.  
🗑
show Thorndike’s apparatus used in research with cats
