Study Notes
Infant Memory
- Infants display significant memory development in the first 18 months of life.
- Six-month-olds can recall how to activate a mobile or train after a two-week delay, demonstrating long-term retention.
- Infant memory is influenced by similar factors to adult memory.
Children's Eyewitness Testimony
- Children's eyewitness testimony can be influenced by misleading information, stereotypes, and suggestions.
- Research shows that children who are exposed to stereotypes or receive inaccurate suggestions are more likely to falsely claim they witnessed events.
Elderly Memory
- Elderly individuals often face stereotypes about memory decline, which can lead to negative self-perceptions.
- Research on age-related changes in memory highlights individual differences and complex developmental trends.
Working Memory in Elderly People
- It's challenging to fully understand how well elderly adults perform on tasks requiring working memory.
- Research on memory in elderly individuals shows varying results, leading to no comprehensive explanation.
Metamemory
- Metamemory refers to your knowledge, monitoring, and control of your memory.
- Research on metamemory in children and elderly individuals reveals understanding of how memory works, awareness of effort required for learning, and judgments about individual memory performance.
Children's Metamemory
- Children's understanding of how memory works evolves over time, becoming more accurate in older years.
- Children often fail to realize they need to make an effort to use memory strategies.
- Young children are often overconfident in their memory performance; older children become more accurate in self-assessment.
