Visual Encoding
Mental pictures (imagery) are a powerful aid
especially when combined with semantic
encoding.
Chunking
Organizing items into familiar, manageable
unit. Try to remember the number below.
1-7-7-6-1-4-9-2-1-8-1-2-1-9-4-1
chunk the number and see if you can recall it
easier. 1776 1492 1812 1941.

Working Memory
(7 2 or 5-9 bits of
information)
and short duration
(about 20 30 seconds).

Capacity of working memory may be
increased by Chunking.

Hippocampus
Hippocampus a neural center in the limbic
system that processes explicit memories.

Implicit Memory
HM can form new
memories that are procedural (implicit).
31
Cerebellum
Cerebellum a neural center in the hindbrain
that processes implicit memories.
32
and concepts
- Network is irregular and
distorted
Schema Theories
- Long-term searches are not
exact
- Retrieved information is fit
into an existing formation
(schema)
- Schemas: concepts,
knowledge, or
information about events
that already exist in the
mind and influence the
way we encode
information

Dja Vu
Dja Vu means "I've experienced this before.
Cues from the current situation may
unconsciously trigger retrieval of an earlier
similar experience.

Retrieval
Recall
previously learned
information, as in essay or
fill-in-the-blank
Recognition
identify learned
information, as in multiple
choice

Retrieval Cues
Memories are held in storage by a web of
associations. These associations are like anchors
that help retrieve memory.

Retrieval Failure
Although the information is retained in the
memory store it cannot be accessed.
