Confabulation
|
giving additional information and details that were not part of the original episode
|
|
|
Eyewitness Memory
|
1.Attribution error
2.Misleading Information 3.Inference 4.General Phenomena |
|
|
Real Memories
|
results from lab are consistent with results from real life (concentration camp)
|
|
|
False Memory
|
bad term
implies a dichtomy |
|
|
Implanting Memories
|
"remember when"
repetition |
|
|
Flashbulb Memories
|
looking back at big events such as JFK assasination (where were you when...)2 assessments, difference of accuracy between first assessment and second
*just as inaccurate as control memories |
|
|
Effect of Delay in Flashbulb Memory
|
longer delay=more consistent
short delay=less consistent Winningham |
|
|
Consistency score
|
scale of 0-8 that determines how consistent memory is from first to second trial in flashbulb tests
|
|
|
Category
|
group of objects/things that have something in common
*slightly different for each person |
|
|
Exemplar
|
instance of a category item(chair is an exemplar of furniture)
|
|
|
Concept
|
mental representation of a category that allows generalizatoin
|
|
|
Classical View
|
neccisary and sufficient conditions for membership (3 sides and interior angles are difining features, so has category membership for triangle)
|
|
|
Typicality Effect
|
certain items faster b/c more typical
faster/more accurate to verify category membership |
|
|
Category Hierarchies
|
Superordinate
Basic Subordinate |
|
|
Prototype Models
|
has all features
average,most typical examplar can identify faster/more accurately even if you have never seen before b/c of all the similarities 2.compare new items to to prototype and assign membership on similarities to prototype |
|
|
Prototype Effect
|
1.accurately categorize prototype w/o seeing it b4
|
|
|
Exemplar Models
|
store all exemplars
compare new items to stored exemplars and assign to same category as the most similar stored exemplar *explains prototype and typicality effects |
|
|

|
|
|
Exemplar Models
|
store all exemplars
compare new items to stored exemplars and assign to same category as the most similar stored exemplar *explains prototype and typicality effects |
|
|
Collins and Quillian
|
Cognitive Economy
isa links and property links takes time to move times are additive and level independent sentence verification paradigm |
|
|
Cognitive Economy
|
store each property at highest level
be economic with memory storage hierarchy effect |
|
|
Priming
|
R/T difference between 2 related/unrelated items (4 trials total)
|
|
|
Lexical Decision
|
say whether a target is a word or not
*faster regarding test with related words than with unrelated words |
|
|
SOA: Stimulus Onset Asynchrony
|
difference between the start of two events
1.Automatic 2.Strategic |
|
|
Automatic SOA
|
seen at short SOAs
not enough time for strategic processes |
|
|
Strategic SOA
|
seen at long SOAs
|
|
|
Neely (1977)
|
Priming
comparing short/long SOAs w/ manipulating expectations two graphs to learn and breakdown |
|
|
Spreading Activation
|
related concepts are connected, and related words get partially activated b/c they are likely to follow
has almost no organization at all explains priming 4 assumptions |
|
|
Assumptions
|
activatoin spreads on all paths
activation spreads in parallel activation decreases over time complex decision rules on negative trials |
