Bonus 2% has been posted due in feb (test 3) Actual connection occurs between stimulus and response in the brain. Response occurs right after stimulus occurs (automatic, mechanical in nature) Stimulus different cognition processes response: if you can encounter a stimulus, certain neurons automatically fire that are assoaciated with the stimulus and a second set of neurons fire that are associated with response. This relationship strengthens over time creating an automatic response. Memory: the learning that has persisted over time through encoding, storage, and retrieval. Input (encode) processing (storage) output (retrieval) Limitations with this model: info is processed simultaneously, and not just sequentially. Input is where you encode the info, stamp or input the info in the system. Output it the retrieval (pulling info out that you need) Connectionism: a (cid:272)ertai(cid:374) patter(cid:374) is a(cid:272)ti(cid:448)ated i(cid:374) the (cid:271)rai(cid:374) (cid:449)he(cid:374) you"re tryi(cid:374)g to re(cid:373)e(cid:373)(cid:271)er something.
