1、Long-term memoryLong-Term Memory Once information passes from sensory to working memory, it can be encoded into long-term memory Long-term Memory Definitions Long-term memory is the storehouse of all the experiences, events,information, emotions, skills, words, categories, rules, and judgments that

2、have been acquired from sensory and short-term memories.EncodingEncoding: modifying information so that it can be placed in memoryContext and Encoding The principle of Encoding specificity suggests that memories emerge most efficiently when the context of retrieval matches the context of encoding.

The primacy effect suggests that the first items learned in a series will be remembered better than others. The recency e

Retrieval cues are more useful for recognition than for recall.RetrievalRetrievalInterference according to interference theory, we also forget material in short-term and long-term memory because newly learned material interferes with it. Proactive

7、interference occurs when information acquired in the past makes it more difficult to acquire new information. Retroactive interference occurs when the acquisition of new information makes it harder to remember older information.The processes of encoding and retrieval Levels of processing Processes a

If processing involves more analysis, interpretation, comparison, and elaboration, it should result in b

Strategies for improving encoding include the following: Elaborative rehearsal MnemonicsImproving Memory for Unstructured Information

10、Elaborative rehearsal refers to elaboration on the material to enrich encoding, such as inventing a relationship that makes an association less arbitrary.Which Level is More Effective? Elaboration leads to better recall than shallow processingImproving Memory for Unstructured Information Mnemonics are devices that encode a long series of facts by associating them with familiar, previously encoded information. Method of loci associates objects with some sequence of places with which the individual is f
