1
Which of the following is an example of automatic processing?
Practicing piano for a recital
Memorizing a speech through repetition
Remembering the layout of a page without trying to
Studying vocabulary terms for a quiz
2
How does the brain use dual-track processing to handle different types of memory?
By storing all memories in. the same brain region
By switching between hearing and sight
By dividing memory into long-term and short-term storage
One path for things we think about, another for automatic things
3
What is “Parallel Processing”?
Processing information in both the left and right sides of the Brain
Taking in information while putting out information, such as speaking
Processing multiple aspects of a stimulus or problem simultaneously
Processing multiple aspects of a stimulus or problem one at a time
4
What is “Recognition”?
Teaching someone information that they already know
Retrieving information that is not currently in your conscious
Identifying items previously learned
Learning something more quickly when you learn it for a second or later tim
5
What is the main difference between explicit and implicit memories, and how are they processed?
Explicit need effort, Implicit is automatic
Implicit memories require more attention and focus than explicit memories.
Explicit are processed automatically, while implicit memories need effort
Both types of memories are stored in the same way but retrieved differently
6
What is memory, and how do we measure it?
Memory is intelligence, we measure it with IQ test scores
Memory is the ability to talk and write
Memory relates to feelings. We measure it with emotions.
Memory is learning that lasts. Measure with recall, recognition, relearning
7
What is “Relearning”?
Identifying items previously learned
Learning something more quickly when you learn it for a second or later tim
Teaching someone information that they already know
Retrieving information that is not currently in your conscious
8
What is iconic memory, and how long does it typically last?
A memory that stores famous symbols
A strong memory tied to emotional experiences
A visual memory that lasts only a few tenths of a second
Auditory memory that lasts several seconds
9
2. What does our brain process automatically?
B) New information we just learned
D) Things like time, space, smells, and word meanings
A) Math problems and science facts
C) Personal memories and emotions
10
What does sensory memory do?
Sends some information to working memory for more thinking
Helps us forget unimportant information
Stores memories for many years
Makes us remember everything we see and hear forever
11
What is “Recall”?
Identifying items previously learned
Learning something more quickly when you learn it for a second or later tim
Retrieving information that is not currently in your conscious
Teaching someone information that they already know
12
According to the information-processing model, to ‘remember’, we must:
Encode, store, retrieve
Store, listen, recall
Listen, process, recall
Process, retrieve, forget
13
1. What is the difference between explicit and implicit memories?
Implicit memories are about facts, explicit ones are about skills
Both types of memory need our full attention
Explicit memories happen without thinking, implicit ones need effort
Explicit memories we remember on purpose, implicit happens automatically
14
What happens when changes happen at the synapse
Memories become locked in forever
The memory begins to deteriorate
They cause old memories to be erased making room for new memories
Brain cells work better, and memory connections get strengthened
15
What does the memory model say, and how has it changed?
Memory goes straight from the brain to action.
We only remember things that impacted our emotions.
Our memory processes and sorts our learning while sleeping
Memory has three steps that are very connected and complex
