What are the three measures of retention? |
Recall recognition and relearning |
|
|
What is the information processing model? |
A three-step model that Likens memory to a computer. 1. Encoding 2. Storage 3. Retrieval |
|
|
What is the Atkinson and Shiffrin memory forming process model? |
1. Record information as fleeting sensory memory 2. Process information into short-term memory where it is encoded through rehearsal 3. Moves into long-term memory for later retrieval *Has been updated* |
|
|
What is working memory? |
Active processing of info by linking new input with long-term memories |
|
|
How are explicit memories formed? |
Effortful processing |
|
|
How are implicit memories formed? |
Automatic processing |
|
|
What are the effortful processing strategies? |
Chunking Mneumonics Heirarchies |
|
|
What are the levels of processing? |
Shallow processing and deep processing |
|
|
Multiple choice questions test our ____. Fill-in-the-blank questions test our____. |
Recognition, recall |
|
|
If you wanted to study for a test would you be better using recall or recognition to test your memory? |
Recall because recall is harder and facilitates better retention. |
|
|
What two new Concepts update the Atkinson-Shiffrin information processing model? |
1.Active processing of sensory information 2. Focusing our Spotlight of attention |
|
|
What is the difference between automatic and effortful processing? |
Automatic processing happens unconsciously such as when we speak our own language. Effortful processing requires attention and awareness such as when we learn new material |
|
|
At which stage of the Atkinson shiffrin model would iconic and echoic memory occur? |
Sensory memory |
|
|
Which strategies are better for long-term learning? Creaming or spreading out study and testing yourself? |
Spreading out study and testing yourself |
|
|
When you make new material personally meaningful are you processing it at age deep or shallow level? Which leads to better retention? |
Processing at a deep level which leads to better retention |
