Imagine you wake up one day and cannot form new memories. How would this impact your ability to learn new things?

• It would enhance your learning ability.

• It would have no effect on your learning ability.

• It would severely impair your learning ability.

• It would slightly improve your learning ability.

Have you ever learned to ride a bike or play an instrument? Why do you never forget these skills, even if you don’t practice for a while?

• Because they are stored in short-term memory.

• Because they are stored in procedural memory.

• Because they are stored in sensory memory.

• Because they are stored in working memory.

Why do we tend to remember emotionally charged events (e.g., birthdays, accidents)?

• Because they are less significant.

• Because they are stored in short-term memory.

• Because they are processed with more attention and emotion.

• Because they are stored in sensory memory.
