Memory is lost from STM by

Fading away through lack of attention

Memory is best described as

the storage and recovery of information acquired through learning

a unitary system through which information flows back and forth.

a multi-store system in which all information is continually processed.

three independent systems called sensory memory, short-term memory and long-term memory

Which of the following activities involves implicit memory?

swimming in water using the freestyle stroke

distinguishing between a shark and a dolphin

telling a friend about how the weekend was spent

recalling a word for a crossword puzzle

Which of the following long-term memories is most likely stored in the cerebellum?

a classically conditioned patellar (knee jerk) reflex

an episodic memory of a celebration

a classically conditioned fear response

Which of the following statements about the hippocampus is correct?

Procedural memories do not appear to involve the hippocampus at all.

The hippocampus is the permanent storage site for explicit memories.

The hippocampus is the permanent storage site for classically conditioned memories.

The medial temporal lobe is located in the hippocampus

Which of the following shows the most likely correct order of memory processes?

perception of stimuli -> encoding -> storage -> LTP -> retrieval

attention -> LTP -> encoding -> storage -> retrieval -> perception of stimuli

perception of stimuli -> encoding -> LTP -> storage -> retrieval

attention -> perception of stimuli -> LTP -> encoding -> storage -> retrieval

Most of the information that reaches sensory memory is

lost from the relevant sensory register

immediately transferred to short-term memory

encoded before transfer to short-term memory.

processed in some way before transfer to short-term memory

Sara is a proficient keyboarder. For example, when creating a Word document, she can key in a complex sentence with eyes closed, very quickly and accurately. However, when asked to name the location of the seven letters on the bottom row of a keyboard, from left to right, in their correct order, she cannot do so. Sara’s keyboarding with eyes closed relies on ______ memory, whereas correctly naming the letters relies on ______ memory.

implicit procedural; explicit semantic

explicit procedural; implicit semantic

implicit procedural; explicit episodic

implicit classically conditioned; explicit semantic

Atkinson and Shiffrin's MSM of memory suggests that

there are thre elevels of memory - sensory, short-term and long term memory

there are different locations in the brain and CNS that process the different forms of information

the brain acts like a computer; it decides what information is to be processed and what information to ignore

we are programmed to act in certain ways; for example sensory memory is primed to respond to movement and change

When information is processed through the MSM three functions are performed. They are

encoding, storage and retrieval

recall, recognition and relearning

rehearsal, chunking and attention

Which of the following statements about storage in LTM is true?

information in LTM is believed to be organised in the form of semantic networks

information enters one of two storage areas, according to whether it is personal or objective knowledge

information in LTM is organised chronologically, that is according to when it was learned.

information in LTM is soted in terms of the physical qualitiies of the experience

Information in sensory memory is available for

a very long time, even up to a lifetime

Elaborative rehearsal involves __________; maintenance rehearsal involves __________;

making meaingful connections with information to be learned; rote repetition of information

rote repetition of information; making meaingful connections with information to be learnt

grouping together items to enhance recall; rote repetition of information to enhance recall

visualising information to ensure it doesn't fade away; rehearsing information sub-vocally to ensure it doesn't fade away.

The capacity of STM is believed to be

5 to nine pieces of information

potentially permanent information

Working memory refers to

the temporary storage and processing of information that can be used to solve problems, respond to environmental demands, or achieve goals.

memory for facts, images, thoughts, feelings, skills and experiences that may last as long as a lifetime

memory specifically dedicated to working only with semantic memories

memory that is expressed in behaviour, and acquired through conditioned learning and association.

The hippocampus is required for the consolidation of

Implicit memories such as classically conditions responses

Explicit memories such as the emotional aspects of memories

Implicit memories such as procedural memories

Your memory of the your 18th birthday (assuming you can remember it) will be

consolidated by the hippocampus and stored in the cerebral cortex.

consolidated and stored in the hippocampus.

p rocessed in the hippocampus and stored in the amygdala.

attached to relevant emotional memories by the amygdala and stored in the cerebellum

Classically conditioned emotional responses such as the one in the Little Albert experiment most likely

lead to enhanced encoding by the amygdala and stored in the cerebellum

consolidated and stored in the hippocampus.

consolidated and stored in the cerebellum

processed in the hippocampus and stored in the amygdala.

As information is processed through the Multi-store model it is

initially raw/original information then encoded twice as it moves through the STM and LTM stores

immediately encoded then remains in that format until stored in LTM

is encoded three times (once each time it enters sensory memory, STM and LTM)

is only encoded if consolidated and stored in LTM

MSM ultimate
