Briefly describethe study by Brady et al. (2008)
|
1) Presented 2500 images
for 3 seconds each 2) Tested memory using three increasingly similar types of foils in 2‐alternative forced choice: Novel/new, Similar/exemplar, and changed state 3) They found that memory was remarkably good across conditions |
|
What are the two sub-types of explicit (concious) memory?
|
Episodic (personal events)
Semantic (facts, knowledge) |
|
what are the three sub-types of implicit (not concious) memory?
|
priming
procedural memory conditioning |
|
Unconscious (not available to awareness)
– Non‐declarative (not easily described in words) |
Implicit memory
|
|
– Conscious
– Declarative |
Explicit memory

|
What was the example where H.M. showed intact implicit memory?
What kind of disscociation is this an example of? |
Mirror drawing improves
• But doesn’t remember having done it before! Single dissociation |
|
In Graf et al's study of Explicit versus Implicit memory, where subjects would first read a word and state whether it was living or not then they were divided into one of two categories:
1) 2) |
1)EXPLICIT TEST:
(living/non‐living): lead "Complete stem with a word you just read" lea bear fear lea_ bea_ 2) IMPLICIT TEST: "Complete stem with first word that comes to mind" lea_ ‐‐‐> lead or leaf bea_ ‐‐‐> beat or bear |
|
What were the results of Graf et al's study in the recall condition?
|
amnesic patients did poorly compared to medical inpatients and alcoholic controls
|
|
In Graf et al's study what were the results in the implicit condition?
|
amnesic patients performed as well as the other patients
