Study Notes
Cognitive Psychology
Imagery
- Imagery is the mental representation of things that are not currently seen or sensed by the sense organs.
- It involves mental images of objects, events, and settings.
- Examples of imagery include recalling sights, sounds, and smells of a past experience, such as the smell of cut grass, tall buildings, or tree-lined paths on a college campus.
Types of Knowledge Structures
- There are two kinds of knowledge structures: declarative knowledge and procedural knowledge.
Spatial Cognition
- Cognitive maps are a part of spatial cognition.
Guided Imagery Techniques
- Guided imagery techniques are used to facilitate mental imagery.
Note: Some sections of the original text did not provide sufficient information to generate meaningful bullet points, so they were omitted from the study notes.
