This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Steven Opett, Chapter 6, Memory Models Parallel Distributed Processing Model, Information-Processing Model Different Types of Memory Sensory Memory, Short-Term/Working Memory Defined The memory system in which information is held for brief periods of time while being used, The brief memory of something a person has just heard Details Lasts 2-4 seconds, very useful in meaningful conversations, Retrieval Cues, Recall, and Recognition Used Retrieving data with (recognition) or without (recall) external cues to guide you, Memory Three Processes Retrieval, Sensory Memory Types Iconic Memory, Interference Types Retroactive, Long Term Memory Different Types of Memory Sensory Memory, Short-Term/Working Memory Selective Attention The ability to focus on only one stimulus from among all sensory input, Memory Defines As An active system that receives information from the senses, puts that information into a usable form, and organizes it as it stores it away, and then retrieves the information from storage., Memory Three Processes Encoding, Information-Processing Model Different Types of Memory Short-Term/Working Memory, Parallel Distributed Processing Model Details Memory processes are proposed to take place at the same time over a large network of neural connections, Storage Defined The next step when memory holds the information for some period of time, Retrieval Defined Getting information that is in storage into a form that can be used, Information that is rehearsed long enough may become long term memory How? Retrieval Cues, Recall, and Recognition, Flashbulb Memories Defined Type of automatic encoding that occurs because an unexpected even has strong emotional associations for the person remembering it, Levels-of-Processing Model Details Assumes that information more "deeply processed" is remembered more efficiently, Sensory Memory Types Echoic
