Memory
by Jack Scott
1. Implicit memory is recalling memories that we know but don't directly do.
1.1. Unlocking doors
1.2. Classical conditioning, using a stimuli to make an action occur on command
2. Procedural Memory is directly related to memory because its a way we remember things, though motor skills
2.1. Is directly related to implicit memory because these skills are ones that we do without thinking
2.2. This is controlled by the basal ganglia
3. Conceptual understanding increases over time, the older then the better, This is related to memory because the concepts can be understood and remembered through different types of memory.
3.1. principles
3.2. models
3.3. theories
4. Phonemes and morphemes, these are components of language. Language and its componets help form a basis for what we know and undertsand
4.1. free and bounded morphemes
5. Flashbulb memories, are ones that can be described very well later in time
5.1. False memories, often flashbulb memories are told different
6. Recognition is related because its a way we remember things. We have done something like it
7. The thalamus acts as the brains snapshot memory and it stores information
8. Available heuristics are information and memores we can recall that lead to a bias about something. This relates to memory because its based on what we can recall.
8.1. representative heuristics involve memory because its a judgement based on memory that you are told
9. Functional fixedness relates to memory because the memory of an object makes you use an object only one way. You do not wanna break the memory of how things are done.
10. Sensory memory, it is storage of information before short term
10.1. Iconic & echoic
10.2. Short term/Working memory
10.3. Long Term Memory
11. Explicit Memory is connected because memory because its how we can recall things
11.1. Semantic memory
11.1.1. related because we can recall things through our knowledge and use of facts
11.2. Episodic memory
11.2.1. Related to memory because its a type of memory, related to explicit because we can recall memories through events that have happened
