PSYC-223 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Implicit Memory, Fine Motor Skill, Phonological Awareness
Document Summary
Context does not matter as much with implicit tasks. Exhibit forgetting after a delay: more clear forgetting in explicit vs implicit memory. Development moves from a more verbatim style of memory to gist storage. Kids struggle with extracting the theme so they have a bias towards storing verbatim. False memory effect: percentage falsely remembering a word is much higher in older children. Tie the foot to the mobile: will kick more to make the mobile move. Measures ltm: how long can the delay be to still have the baby recall the activity. Older have longer memories; even young babies can remember for about a week. Less opportunity to rehearse the memories due to a lack of language before this age.
