Question
Answer
tip-of-the tongue phenomenon   show
🗑
show encoding  
🗑
how is info maintained in memory?   show
🗑
how is info pulled back out of memory?   show
🗑
show involves forming a memory code  
🗑
an example of encoding   show
🗑
storage   show
🗑
show involves recovering info from memory stores  
🗑
what might cause one to forget?   show
🗑
show involves focusing awareness on a narrowed range of stimuli or events  
🗑
show whether stimuli are screened out early, during sensory input, or late, after the brain has processed the meaning or significance of the input  
🗑
show crowded party where many conversations are taking place; filtering out the other conversations; if someone in another conversations mentions your name, you may still notice it ("late" selection)  
🗑
show idea that the location of the "filter" depends on "cognitive load" of current info processing  
🗑
show relatively shadowing processing that emphasizes physical structure of a stimulus  
🗑
example of structural encoding   show
🗑
phonemic encoding   show
🗑
show emphasizes the meaning of verbal input (thinking about the objects and actions the words represent)  
🗑
show theory proposing that deeper levels of processing result in longer-lasting memory codes (deeper processing leads to enhanced memory)  
🗑
show linking a stimulus to other info at the time of encoding  
🗑
show you read that phobias are often caused by classical conditioning and apply this idea to your own fear or spider  
🗑
show creation of visual images to represent words (can be used to enrich encoding)  
🗑
show juggle; imagine someone juggling balls (concrete object). Truth; much more difficulty forming an image (abstract object)  
🗑
16 pairs of words theory   show
🗑
show theory stating memory is enhanced by forming semantic and visual codes, since either can lead to recall  
🗑
self-referent encoding   show
🗑
motivation to remember   show
🗑
sensory memory   show
🗑
example of sensory memory   show
🗑
short-term memory (STM)   show
🗑
rehearsal   show
🗑
chunking   show
🗑
phonological loop   show
🗑
show permits people to temporarily hold and manipulate visual images; at work when you try to mentally rearrange the furniture in your room or map out a route to travel somewhere  
🗑
show controls the deployment of attention, switching the focus of attention as needed; coordinates actions of the other module  
🗑
episodic buffer   show
🗑
working memory capacity (WMC)   show
🗑
show an unlimited capacity store that can hold info over lengthy periods of time  
🗑
flashbulb memories   show
🗑
clustering   show
🗑
show multilevel classification system based on common properties among items  
🗑
schema   show
🗑
show suggests that people are more likely to remember things that are consistent with their schemas than things that aren't  
🗑
show people sometimes exhibit better recall of things that violate their schema-based expectations  
🗑
show consists of nodes representing concepts, joined together by pathways that link related concepts  
🗑
show when people think about a word, their thoughts naturally go to related words  
🗑
connectionist models   show
🗑
show simultaneous processing of the same info that's spread across networks of neurons  
🗑
misinformation effect   show
🗑
reality monitoring   show
🗑
source monitoring   show
🗑
show occurs when a memory derived from one source is misattributed to another source  
🗑
destination memory   show
🗑
retention   show
🗑
recall   show
🗑
recognition   show
🗑
show measure of retention requires a subject to memorize info a second time to determine how much time or how much practice trials are saved by having learned it before  
🗑
show can't really forget something you never learned; lack of attention  
🗑
show theory that proposes that forgetting occurs because memory traces fade with time  
🗑
interference theory   show
🗑
retroactive interference   show
🗑
proactive interference   show
🗑
encoding specificity principle   show
🗑
show occurs when the initial processing of info is similar to the type of processing required by the subsequent measure of retention  
🗑
show refers to keeping distressing thoughts and feelings buried in the unconscious  
🗑
show a long lasting increase in neural excitability at synapses along a specific neural pathway  
🗑
show involves the loss of memories for events that occurred prior to the onset of amnesia  
🗑
show involves the loss of memories for events that occur after the onset of amnesia  
🗑
consolidation   show
🗑
show handles factual info (definitions)  
🗑
show houses memory for actions, skills, conditioned responses, and emotional responses (motor skills)  
🗑
show made up on chronological, or temporally dated, recollection of personal experiences  
🗑
semantic memory system   show
🗑
prospective memory   show
🗑
retrospective memory   show
🗑
show strategies for enhancing memory  
🗑
show continued rehearsal of material after you appear to have mastered it  
🗑
show occurs when subjects show better recall for items at the beginning and end of a list than for items in the middle  
🗑
link method   show
🗑
show involves taking an imaginary walk along a familiar path where images of items to be remembered are associated with certain locations  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
