-AN INTERNAL RECORD OR REPRESENTATION OF SOME PRIOR EVENT OR EXPERIENCE
|
INFORMATION-PROCESSING MODEL
|
-MEMORY IS A PROCESS WHERE INFORMATION GOES THOUGH 3 BASIC PROCESSES; ENCODING, STORAGE, RETRIEVAL-SIMILAR TO A COMPUTER
|
ENCODING
|
-PROCESSING MEMORY INTO THE STORAGE SYSTEM
|
STORAGE
|
-RETAINING INFORMATION OVER TIME
|
RETRIEVAL
|
-RECOVERING STORED INFORMATION
|
PDPM
|
-MEMORY IS DISTRIBUTED ACROSS A WIDE NETWORK OF INTERCONNECTED NEURONS LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE BRAIN-WHEN ACTIVATED THIS NETWORK WORKS SIMULTANEOUSLY TO PROCESS INFO
|
THREE-STAGE MODEL
|
-MEMORY REQUIRES 3 DIFFERENT STORAGE BOXES OR STGES TO HOLD AND PROCESS INFO FOR VARIOUS LENGTHS OF TIME
|
SENSORY MEMORY
|
-PRESERVES INFORMATION FROM EACH OF THE SENSES IN ORIGINAL SENSORY FORM
|
ICONIC MEMORY
|
-THE VISUAL ICON
|
ECHOIC MEMORY
|
-AUDITORY INFORMATION
|
SHORT-TERM MEMORY
|
-WORKING MEMORY-SECOND STAGE, WHICH TEMPORARILY STORES SENSORY INFO AND DECIDES WHETHER TO SEND IT TO LTM
|
CHUNKING
|
-GROUPING SEPARATE PIECES OF INFO INTO A SINGLE UNIT
|
LONG-TERM MEMORY
|
-3RD STAGE OF MEMORY WITH RELATIVELY PERMANENT MEMORY STORAGE AND A VIRTUALLY LIMITLESS CAPACITY
|
SEMANTIC NETWORKS
|
-CONSISTS OF NODES REPRESENTING CONCEPTS-RELATED NODES ARE LINKED BY PATHWAYS
|
SPREADING ACTIVATION
|
-EXPLAINS WHY THINKING ABOUT ONE WORD CAN MAKE REMEMBERING CLOSELY RELATED WORDS EASIER
