Memory (Memory and the Brain (Prefrontal Cortex: working memory,…

- - - - Retrograde: disrupts memory for experiences before injury
      - Anterograde: disrupts memory for experiences after injury (H.M.)
      - may not affect implicit memories
  - - - information acquired and processed into neural code
        
        Repetition (Ebinghaus): the more times nonsense syllables are practiced on day 1, the fewer repetitions were required to remember them on day 2
        
        Semantic Encoding: encoding meaning results in better recognition later than visual or acoustic encoding
    - - information is stored in the brain
        
        Stress: heightened emotions --> stronger memories
        
        Flashbulb Memory: unique and highly emotional moment --> clear, strong, persistent memory. Not free from errors.
    - - information is retrieved when it is needed
        
        Retrieval Cues: associations in web of memory that help retrieve memories when appropriate
