Document Summary
Declarative/explicit memory (accessible): episodic (episodes), semantic (facts, words, meanings) - i. e. shriffrin-atkinson model. Implicit memory (consciously inaccessible): procedural, classical conditioning, cognitive associations (can"t declare) Processes happen on these processes (dual process model) - implicit, explicit. Semantically related nodes = closer (easier to biologically activate) Turn each node into patterns (neurons can be talking about multiple sets of neurons - different independent units - organized in different ways -> resilience. Patterns in brain are organized because patterns in the environment = organized. Memories = meaningful overlapping patterns of neural activity. Access a pattern -> increase accessibility of other patterns. Optimizes efficiency of retrieving information -> enables fast adaptive functioning of brains. Top down processing (activated -> guides how you perceive information) Habitually/chronic and recently accessed patterns -> activated. Reconstruction of perception - change frame of what is to be interpreted. Reconstruct based on retrieval cues and networks of neurons activated.
