Neuron's that fire together, wire together.
What is this law?
Hebb's Law
Ribot’s law
Korsakoff’s law
Tulving's law
Answer explanation
Hebb's Law
Memory is the result of changes in the strength of synaptic interactions among neurons in neural networks.
If a synapse is active when a postsynaptic neuron is active, the synapse will be strengthened (neuron's that fire together, wire together).
This is due to Long-Term Potentiation (LTP), a lasting increase in responsiveness of a postsynaptic neuron caused by a brief, high-frequency stimulation to presynaptic neuron

Atkinson and Shiffrin's Three Stage model of memory regarded short-term memory as a single entity that is essential for all longterm learning. This model was replaced by...
Working Memory Models
Binary Models
Franco-European Models
Ebbinghausian Models
Answer explanation
Working Memory Model
Atkinson and Shiffrin's model regarded Short-Term Memory (STM) as a single entity that is essential for all longterm learning.
Both of these assumptions turned out to be incorrect.
This model was replaced by the Braddeley's Working Memory Model, in which STM is replaced by Working Memory.
Other new models “cut out the middle man” and suggest that there are no short-term stores, but that working memory is, instead, just the temporary activation of longterm memories

Modern models tend to view Short Term Memory as...
A subset of Working Memory
A temporary activation of Long Term Memory

What brain areas are associated with the Phonological Loop?
BA44
Supramarginal Gyrus
Hippocampus
Occipital Lobe
Answer explanation
Working Memory span is usually 7, +/-2.
Span is reduced if participants are asked to silently mouth irrelevant speech (e.g., saying “1, 2, 3 …”) while encoding a list
Suggests that span tasks involve a rehearsal mechanism: the “phonological loop”
Phonological loop is associated with BA44 and SUpramarginal Gyrus

Keeping visuo-spatial information in mind involves sustaining activity in regions of the brain involved in _____.
Object Perception
Language Processing
Mathemtical Reasoning
Emotional Cognition
Answer explanation
Visuo-Spatial STM
Baddeley says visuo-spatial STM works the same as phonological loop in working memory
Alternate view: Keeping visuo-spatial information in mind involves sustaining activity in regions of the brain involved in object perception.
Damage to right Parieto-Occipital region produces deficit in visuo-spatial STM
Damage to left Parieto-Occipital region produces deficit in linguistic material
