Memory

Which of these is in the right order? 'Processes of memory'

• Input, output, encoding, storage, retrieval

• Input, encoding, storage, retrieval, output

• Encoding, retrieval, output, input, storage

• Output, encoding, input, storage, retrieval

Which of these is the best definition of retrieval?

• The sensory information we receive from our environment

• The retention of information in our memory system

• The recall of stored memory

• Turning sensory information into a form it can be used and stored by the brain.

Which of these is the best definition of encoding?

• The sensory information we receive from our environment

• The retention of information in our memory system

• The recall of stored memory

• Turning sensory information into a form it can be used and stored by the brain.

Which of these are true of the short-term memory?

• It has a capacity of 7+/2 items

• It has a duration of 15-30 seconds without rehearsal

• It is encoded semantically

• Forgetting occurs due to displacement or decay

Which of these are true of the long-term memory?

• It has a potentially limitless capacity

• It has a duration of 15-30 seconds without rehearsal

• It is encoded semantically

• Forgetting occurs due to displacement, interference or retrieval failure

Which of these is the best definition of displacement?

• The sensory information we receive from our environment

• When new incoming information pushes out older information

• The recall of stored memory

• Turning sensory information into a form it can be used and stored by the brain.

Which of these is the best definition of decay?

• The sensory information we receive from our environment

• When new incoming information pushes out older information

• When information is lost because it isn't used or is overwritten by new information

• Turning sensory information into a form it can be used and stored by the brain.

Which of these is in the right order? 'Multi-store model of memory'

• Sensory memory, long-term memory, short-term memory

• Short-term memory, sensory memory, long-term memory

• Sensory memory, short-term memory, long-term memory

• Long-term memory, sensory memory, short-term memory

What must happen for information to move from the sensory register to short-term memory?

• We must repeat it

• We must rehearse it

• We must may attention to it

• We must retrieve it

Which of these is the best definition of rehearsal?

• The sensory information we receive from our environment

• When new incoming information pushes out older information

• When information is lost because it isn't used or is overwritten by new information

• Repeating information out loud or in our heads over and over again
