Separate memory systems: Short-term memory, encoding for storage, long-term memory
Declarative Memory
Declarative memory: stores facts or events. There are two kinds of declarative memory.
Sensory Memory
Iconic Memory: a form of sensory memory that automatically hold visual information for about quarter of a second or more. When shifting your attention the information disappears.
Therapist’s role in recovered memories: they use images, hypnosis, true serum, sodium amatol.
Do Emotions Affect Memories?
Emotions seem to “stamp-in” memories, because if something happens during a strong emotion the chances of remembering a situation, person, or event are greater.
Short Term Memory: Working
Sensory Memory: a process of receiving and holding information, in its raw state, for a short period of time (from an instant to several seconds).
Procedural or Non-declarative Memory
Procedural or Non-declarative Memory: memories for motor skills, cognitive skills, and emotional behaviors learned through classical conditioning.
Short Term Memory (working memory): process that can only hold a limited amount of information (about seven items) for 2-30seconds.
Long Term Memory: process of storing almost unlimited amount of information over long periods of time.
Limited Capacity: few information is able to be stored in short-term memory, but Inference will happen, which is when new information enters short-term memory and overwrites or pushes out older information.
Semantic memory: involve knowledge of facts, concepts, words, definitions, and language rules.
Episodic memory: involves knowledge of specific events, personal experiences, or activities like naming or describing favorite restaurants, movies, songs, etc.
Repressed Memories
Repression: When the mind pushes a memory of some threatening or traumatic event deep into the unconscious. Once there it can not be retrieved at will and may remain there until something releases it and person remembers it.
term memory into long-term without any effort and usually without and awareness.
Effortful- transfer of information from shortterm memory into long-term either by working hard to repeat or usually by making associations between new and old information. Levels of processing theory: states that remembering depends on how information is encoded.
Echoic Memory: hold auditory information for 1 to 2 seconds.
Functions of Sensory Memory: 1)prevents form being overwhelmed, 2) gives decision time, 3) provides stability, playback, and recognition.

3 Types of Memory
Sensory Memory: a process of receiving and holding information, in its raw state, for a short period of time (from an instant to several seconds).
Limited Duration: usually information will disappear after a few seconds, but with Maintenance Rehearsals, which is to repeat information many times, so that is remains longer in short-term memory.
Encoding: Transferring
Encoding: Acquiring information or storing information in memory by changing it to neural or memory codes.
Two kinds of encoding: Automatic- transfer of informatinue…
Chunking: combining separate items of information into a larger unit, and then remembering chunks of information rather than individual items.
Functions of Short-term Memory: 1) attending, 2) rehearsing, 3) storing
Long-Term Memory: Storing
Steps in the memory process: 1) Sensory Memory 2) Attention 3) Short-term Memory 4) Encoding 5) Long-term Memory 6)Retrieving
