Document Summary
Procedural knowledge how to do things, this is hard to remember. Declarative knowledge: episodic autobiographical, experiences, semantic factual stuff. Subjective organization: gave them a bunch of words and then saw how people grouped stuff for recall. Models of semantic memory: semantic feature comparison model, stage 1: you see if there is a lot, little or medium overlap (global feature comparison; fast yes or no, ex. Robin bird; robin car: stage 2: if there is medium overlap, then it goes to this stage (defining features; slow yes or no, ex. Picture studies: sheppard showed 200 pictures, asked them, did you see this picture? accuracy - 98: nickerson showed 600 pictures, did the same thing: 1 day later: 92%, 1 year later. Hemispheric specialization (leehey: you show the stimuli to one of the visual fields, results: words: rvf (lh) > lvf (rh) Dual coding theory (paivio, 1974) go over this study again, go over paired associative task.
