Study Notes
Types of Memory
- Implicit memory is characterized by the retention of information independent of conscious recollection.
- Explicit memory is the memory of facts and experiences that one can consciously know and declare.
Memory Measures
- Recognition memory is measured by the ability to identify items previously learned.
Memory Phenomena
- The-spacing effect phenomenon involves saving a substantial amount of time when learning material again.
Memory Retrieval
- Recall memory is associated with consciously pulling information completely from memory.
Brain Regions
- The hippocampus helps process explicit memories for storage and functions as a loading dock for information.
- The cerebellum is largely associated with procedural memory and associations.
Effects of Hippocampus Damage
- When the left side of the hippocampus is damaged, verbal information is impaired.
- When the right side of the hippocampus is damaged, visual designs and locations are impaired.
