Document Summary

* tests of recognition and of time spent relearning demonstrate that we remember more than we can recall. 23. 1. 2 memory models information-processing models are analogies that compare human memory to a computer"s operations. Memory: richard atkinson - richard shiffrin: three-stage model for the memory-forming process 1) we first record to-be-remembered information as a fleeting sensory. Memory (the relatively permanent and limitless storehouse of the memory system. Includes knowledge, skills, and experiences) for later retrieval this model has been updated to include newer concepts such as working memory and automatic processing. 23. 2. 1 encoding and automatic processing implicit memories include procedural memory for automatic skills and classically conditioned associations among stimuli: we also automatically process information about space, time and frequency. 23. 2. 2 encoding and effortful processing: most information is initially processed through effortful processing, but after practice is processed automatically. Sensory memory sensory memory records a momentary image of a scene or an echo of a sound.
