A memory storage system Unlimited capacity A few weeks to an entire life span
(Warren, 1997)
Long-term Memory
![Page 3: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Memories of procedures, skills, and “how to”
Slow to acquire, but hard to lose Repetition develops memory Examples 1. Tying your shoe’s strings 2. Riding a bike 3. Practicing a musical
instrument
(Farndon, 2003)
Non-Declarative Memory
![Page 4: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Two types: Episodic and Semantic Storage of facts Examples 1. First car 2. Birthday
(Farndon, 2003)
Declarative Memory

Episodic Striking
experiences Sensations Examples
1. Breaking your arm2. First real date
(Farndon, 2003)
Semantic Dates Examples
1.Christmas Day2. Your mother’s
birthday
Episodic and Semantic Memories

Short-term memory to long-term memory through the hippocampus
Shape of a seahorse Makes the long-term memories, but doesn’t
store them If both hippocampi are destroyed, then you can
never learn anything new
(Dongier, 2002)
Hippocampus
![Page 7: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
New facts or memories are remembered by running them through the hippocampus many times over.
Repeating Mnemonic devices
(Dongier, 2002)
Remember to Repeat
![Page 8: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
These memories are not lost, instead are misplaced
Memories that have been restored did not form new forebrain neurons.
These neurons just grew new connections to the others.
This rewiring will bring back lost memories.
(Shay, 2007)
Lost Memories
![Page 9: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Memories are divided up and stored in many regions inside the brain.
Memories make up the connections between neurons
This is why a smell might trigger an old memory
Storage of Memories
![Page 10: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The process in which we find information in our long-term memory, then transfer it back to the working memory
We retrieve these long-term memories triggered by the new information, then store both of them together.
Two types: recall and recognize
(Wagner, 2005)
Retrieval of Memories
![Page 11: Clark Higgins Remember To Repeat](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/548be083b479592b788b4743/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Retrieval methods
Recall Recognition
We get information from our memory without seeing the memory.
Example A short answer
question.
(Wagner,2005)
Revolves around recognizing the information after seeing it before.
ExampleA quiz where you
choose one of the choices to be the correct one.
