Concpet of memory
1. Sensory memory is the memory where you recieve info from your senses, this travels to the brain. It is retained for a shot amount of time since this is not of great importance.
2.When you feel a surface and it transfers the info about its texture, this is rapidly forgotten.
3.visual about 1 second, and auditory about 4 seconds.
4.This is the stage after sensory memory, in here slective attion will pick which of the memories are important and move them from sensory memory to short-term memory. They are in the form of images or sounds, this gives room for short computations. After that they are moved to other parts of the memory system or discarded.
5.George Miller in 1956, and it is +/- 2 making it from the range of 5-9.
6. Chunking refers to the configuration of large amounts of information, into small ones, which a fit to structure and acomodation of memory.
7.Number:3-4 Letters:3
8.Acoustic
9.This type of memory can last from days to decades. Memories become long term with the proccess of rehearsal and meaningful association, this means that you see it quite often and you give it importance, therefore your brain remembers it for a longer period of time.
10.This model states that there are 3 ways of memory stores, sensory memory, short term memory and finally long term memory. It categorizes them by the duration they last, sensory being to the maximum of 4 seconds, short term memory being about 18-20 minutes, and it stores things by chunks, and finally long term memory which lasts up to a lifetime.
11.1. Not all of the rehearsal leads to the improvement of retention2. STM is in terms of the number of units that can be processed an any one time, he gave 7 +/- 2, but recent researchers have developed 5 +/- 23. The sensory stores are sensory systems, not memory systems as most people think of the term "memory."
12.This model concretes in Long Term Meory and the processing that occurs there, it gives an alternative to the multi store model that suggests info is transfered by rehearsal. This model suggests that the depth or level at which we process information determines its place in LTM and also how well we recall that information, meaning the more we think about it, the longer it stays in our head.
13.Continiously repeating the material to be remembered. Repeating vocabulary words to learn them.
14.This time of rehearsal involves comparing something new with something you already know that is stored in your Long term memory.Relating someone new you meet named John and associating it with someone you already know called John.
15.Craik and Lockhart developed in the year of 1972 the levels of processing models and the concepts of maintenance and elaborative rehearsal.
