What are the types of memory?
|
sensory memory, short-term memory, long term memory
|
|
temporary storage of information received from the senses.
very brief iconic (visual) vs. echoic (auditory) |
sensory memory
|
|
memory that allows us to hold information in conscious thought while we process further
very limited effortful to maintain |
short term memory
|
|
vast
long lasting episodic (autobiographical) -past experiences about ourselves vs. semantic -knowledge about the world that is detached from specific episodes. |
long term memory
|
|

|
|
Pavlov's dogs
a new stimulus (CS) starts to evoke the same type of response as an old stimulus (UCS) after being paired together over time. |

2. Model must be reinforced for behavior 3. Consumer performs behavior later 4. If consumer is reinforced, then behavior occurs again. |
basic steps of observational learning
|
|
process of transferring info from short-term to long-term memory.
|
encoding
|
|
new info is integrated with existing knowledge in long-term memory and kept until needed
|
storage
|
|
desired info is accessed from long-term memory and brought back into short-term memory
|
Retrieval
|
|
What are the stages of memory?
