False beliefs about memory ©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e)
Slide 2-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) The Nature of Memory Memory: internal record or representation of some prior event or experience Memory is also a constructive process, in which we actively organize and shape information as it is processed, stored, and retrieved. Enhancing Memory
Slide 3-

The Nature of Memory retention of information or experience over time Three Phases of Memory encoding storage retrieval

Slide 6-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) The Nature of Memory— Description of Four Memory Models 1. Information Processing Approach: memory is a process analogous to a computer, which encodes, stores, and retrieves information
Slide 7-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) The Nature of Memory— Description of Four Memory Models (Cont.) 2. Parallel Distributed Processing Model: memory is distributed across a network of interconnected units that work simultaneously (in a parallel fashion) to process information
Slide 8-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) 3. Levels of Processing Approach: memory depends on the degree or depth of mental processing occurring when material is initially encountered 4. Traditional Three-Stage Memory Model: memory requires three different storage boxes to hold and process information for various lengths of time The Nature of Memory— Description of Four Memory Models (Continued)
Slide 9-

Serial Position Effect: Evidence for two memory stores Primacy Effect more space in working memory for elaborative rehearsal during encoding: LTM Recency Effect items still in working memory Serial Position Effect: remembering material at the beginning and end of the list better than material in the middle

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Summary of three stages SR: Duration? Representation? Capacity? Loss? STS: Duration? Representation? Capacity? Loss? LTM: Duration? Representation? Capacity? Loss?
Slide 12-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) The Nature of Memory— Description of Three Stage Memory Model Sensory Memory: briefly preserves a relatively exact replica of sensory information Sensory memory has a large capacity but information only lasts a few seconds. Selected information is sent on to short-term memory.
Slide 13-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Sperling’s Experiment with Sensory Memory When flashed an arrangement of 12 letters for 1/20 of a second, most people can only recall 4 or 5. Sperling proved all 12 letters were available in sensory memory if they can be attended to quickly.
Slide 14-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) The Nature of Memory— Three Stage Memory Model (Cont.) Short-Term Memory (STM): temporarily stores sensory information and decides whether to send it on to long-term memory (LTM) STM can hold 5-9 items for about 30 seconds before they are forgotten. STM capacity can be increased with chunking. STM duration improves with maintenance rehearsal.

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) An Example of Using Hierarchies as an Organizational Tool
Slide 23-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) An Example of Recognition Vs. Recall Research shows people are better at recognizing photos of previous high school classmates than recalling their names.
Slide 24-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Forgetting: How Quickly Do We Forget? Ebbinghaus found: forgetting occurs most rapidly immediately after learning. relearning takes less time than initial learning.
Slide 25-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Why Do We Forget? Five Key Theories Decay Interference Motivated Forgetting Encoding Failure Retrieval Failure
Slide 26-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Five Theories of Forgetting (Continued) 1. Decay Theory: memory degrades with time 2. Interference Theory: one memory competes (interferes) with another Retroactive Interference (new information interferes with old) Proactive Interference (old information interferes with new)
Slide 27-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Forgetting: Interference vs. Decay Key Study: Jenkins & Dallenbach (1924), subjects learn list of words either before sleeping or after waking.
Slide 28-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Two Forms of Interference
Slide 29-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) 3. Motivated Forgetting: motivation to forget unpleasant, painful, threatening, or embarrassing memories 4. Encoding Failure: information in STM is not encoded in LTM 5. Retrieval Failure: memories stored in LTM are momentarily inaccessible (tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon) Five Theories of Forgetting (Continued)
Slide 30-

Forgetting: Memory Failure prospective memory remembering to do something in the future content – remembering what to do timing – remembering when to do it absentmindedness amnesia anterograde amnesia inability to store new information and events retrograde amnesia inability to retrieve past information and events

Slide 32-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Overcoming Problems with Forgetting (Continued) Source Amnesia: forgetting the true source of a memory Sleeper Effect: information from an unreliable source, which was initially discounted, later gains credibility because source is forgotten Spacing of Practice: distributed practice is better than massed practice
Slide 33-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Biological Bases of Memory Biological changes in neurons facilitate memory through long-term potentiation (LTP), which happens in at least two ways: repeated stimulation of a synapse strengthens the synapse, and neuron’s ability to release its neurotransmitters is increased or decreased.
Slide 34-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Biological Bases of Memory (Continued) Hormones also affect memory (e.g., flashbulb memories--vivid and lasting images are associated with surprising or strongly emotional events).
Slide 35-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Where Are Memories Located? Memory tends to be localized and distributed throughout the brain--not just the cortex.
Slide 36-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Biology and Memory Loss: Injury and Disease Amnesia: memory loss from brain injury or trauma Retrograde amnesia: old memories lost Anterograde amnesia: new memories lost
Slide 37-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Biology and Memory Loss: Injury and Disease (Continued) Alzheimer’s Disease (AD): progressive mental deterioration characterized by severe memory loss
Slide 38-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Memory and the Criminal Justice System Two memory problems with profound legal implications: Eyewitness Testimony-- very persuasive but can be flawed Repressed Memories— considerable debate as to whether recovered memories are accurate or repressed
Slide 39-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Using Psychology to Improve Our Memory Why do we distort our memories? Need to maintain logic and consistency. Need to shape and construct our memories because it is more efficient to do so.
Slide 40-

©John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007 Huffman: Psychology in Action (8e) Pause and Reflect: Why Study Psychology? Psychological research conducts basic research, which helps us describe and understand our own and others’ memory processes. This basic research also leads to applied research that shows us how to improve our sensory, short-term, and long-term memory. Enhancing Memory
