Problems can occur at any of these stages. • The two main forms of memory storage are short-term and long-term memory. Short-term memory lasts for a very brief time and can only hold 6–9 pieces of information. Long-term storage can hold an infinite amount of information and can last for a very long time. • Implicit and explicit memories, also called declarative and non-declarative memories, are two different types of memory. Implicit memories are of sensory and automatized behaviors, and explicit memories are of information, episodes, or events. Stages of Memory View on Boundless.com • Patients who have brain damage are often used to study the neural correlates of memory. Patient HM helped researchers learn important information about which areas of the brain are associated with various memory functions. Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

Sensory Memory, Working Memory and Long Term Memory all serve varying purposes. • Sensory Memory is divided into two sub-forms: Iconic Memory (relating to visual input) and Echoic Memory (relating to auditory input). • At the level of Sensory Memory, no manipulation of the incoming information occurs, and the input is quickly transferred to the Working Memory. • There are several theories that explore how information is selected and filtered as it moves into working memory, including the Filter Theory, Attenuation Theory, and Late Attention Theory.

It decays rapidly and has a limited capacity. • Within short-term memory there are three basic operations: iconic memory, the ability to hold visual images in mind; acoustic memory, the ability to hold sounds in mind (this lasts for a longer duration than iconic memory); and working memory, an active process to hold information while it is waiting to be used. • Working memory is a type of short-term memory. It consists of a network of components, including a phonological loop that preserves verbal and auditory data, a visuospatial scratchpad that preserves visual data, and a central manager that controls attention to the data.

Damage to this area of the brain can cause a person to no longer be able to make new memories and may even effect older memories that have not been fully consolidated. • The amygdala has been associated with enhanced retention of memory. Because of this, it is thought to modulate memory consolidation. The effect is most pronounced in emotionally charged events. • The cerebellum is associated with creativity and innovation.

Scientists have gained knowledge about these neuronal codes from studies on neuroplasticity. • Encoding of episodic memory involves lasting changes in molecular structures, which alters communication between neurons. Recent functional imaging studies have detected working-memory signals in the medial temporal lobe and the prefrontal cortex. Lobes of the Cerebral Cortex View on Boundless.com • Both the frontal lobe and prefrontal cortex are associated with long- and shortterm memory, suggesting a strong link between these two types of memory. • The hippocampus is integral in consolidating memories but does not seem to store memories itself.

With new experiences and sensations, the brain "rewires" itself by creating new connections to create new memories. • There are four main types of encoding that can occur within the brain: visual, elaborative, acoustic, and semantic. • Visual encoding uses information from the visual senses to create memories, while acoustic encoding uses sound information to create new memories. Overview of memory View on Boundless.com • Elaborative encoding uses information that is already known and relates it to the new information being experienced. • Semantic encoding is the use of sensory input that has certain meaning or context to encode and create memories.

However, in reality, long-term memory is not permanent. • In order to explain the recall process, a memory model must identify how an encoded memory can reside in storage for a prolonged period of time until it is accessed again. • The Multi-Trace Distributed Memory model, the Neural Network model, and the Dual-Store Memory Search model each seek to explain how memories are stored Overview of memory View on Boundless.com in the brain.

This concept is known as connectionism. • The Parallel Distributed Processing (PDP) model posits that neural networks interact to store memory and that memory is created by modifying the strength of the connections between neural units. This approach is based on fundamental principles of technology and mathematics. • The Neural Network Model also states that connections between neurons create and store memories.

Cues are thought to be most effective when they have a strong, complex link with the information to be recalled. • Serial recall is another strategy for retrieving information. Memories of events or items tend to be recalled in the same order in which they were experienced, so by thinking through a list or series of events, you can boost your recall of successive items. • The primacy and recency effects show that items near the beginning and end of a list or series tend to be remembered most frequently. • Sometimes cues can interfere with encoding. If new information is learned that is similar to old information, proactive interference can inhibit encoding new data. An overview of memory View on Boundless.com Rather than being stored as old, separate information, the old memories can interfere with the encoding process of the new memories. • The tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon occurs when an individual can almost recall a word but cannot directly identify it.

These conflicting memories assist in causing us to "forget" the memory we want to recall. • Not consistently reviewing, or not having to often recall, a memory will lead to memory decay, which will ultimately result in a person forgetting that memory. • Memories form around more than just events; they are also influenced by whether information is important and relevant.

However, memories that were not fully consolidated from before the event may also be lost. • Retrograde amnesia is the inability to recall memories from before the onset of amnesia. A person may be able to encode new memories after the event, and they are more likely to remember general knowledge rather than specifics. • Source amnesia is the inability to remember where, when, or how previously learned information was acquired, but the factual knowledge is retained. • Source confusion is misremembering of the source of a memory. The individual does not forget the source but rather remembers it inaccurately.

When information is transferred to long-term memory for extended storage, details are lost in the consolidation process. • Because memories are reconstructed, they are susceptible to being manipulated with false information. The brain has the tendency to fill in any blanks or inconsistencies in a memory by making use of schemas, imagination, and similarities with other memories. • Much research has shown that the phrasing of questions can alter memories. Children are particularly suggestible to such leading questions and misinformation.

Recall is better for events that last longer. • The time between the perception and recollection of an event can also affect recollection. The accuracy of eyewitness memory degrades rapidly after initial encoding; the longer the delay between encoding and recall, the worse recall will be. The Forgetting Curve of Memory • Research has consistently shown that even very subtle changes in the wording of View on Boundless.com a question can influence memory. Questions whose wording might bias the responder toward one answer over another are referred to as leading questions. • Age has been shown to impact the accuracy of memory; younger witnesses are more suggestible and are more easily swayed by leading questions and misinformation. • Other factors such as personal biases, poor visibility, and the emotional tone of the event can influence eyewitness testimony.

In traumatic memories, there is a narrowed attentional focus on the emotional aspects of the memory; in contrast, non-traumatic memories encode a full narrative of the event. • Some theorize that survivors of childhood sexual abuse may use repression to cope with the traumatic experience. • Detractors of the theory of repressed memories claim that for most people, the difficulty with traumatic memories is their intrusiveness—that people are unable to Lost-in-the-mall experiment View on Boundless.com forget them despite often wanting to. • Given how unreliable memory is, some argue that attempting to "recover" a repressed memory runs the risk of implanting "false memories". • At this point it is impossible, without other corroborative evidence, to distinguish a true memory from a false one.

Creating more links to a memory makes it easier to recall. • Another way to improve memory is through the use of a mnemonic device, such as ROY G BIV for the colors of the rainbow. • People are more likely to be able to retrieve a memory if they are in the same mood as they were in when the memory was first formed. • Environmental structuring means physically arranging things so that we will bump into them in time to remember to do them. One example of this approach is pill Common mnemonics boxes that are labeled with a day of the week on each compartment.
