be captured and added to the aviary (placing a new memory into storage)‚ and at a later date the bird can be captured in a net and removed (retrieval of a memory). Inability to capture a bird or its escape from the cage are useful analogies for the two basic processes of forgetting. Some modern theories of memory still use this principle of storage and retrieval‚ however it is becoming more popular now to see memory as a process rather than simply a storage system. Research in recent years has shown

Short Term Memory After reading several articles on short term memory‚ I noticed mostly everyone defines it differently. The most frequent definition is a system for temporarily storing and managing information required to carry out complex cognitive tasks such as learning‚ reasoning and comprehension. It is involved in selection‚ initiation and termination of information - processing functions such as encoding‚ storing‚ and retrieving data. Short term memory is the little thing that completely

In the first trial they were asked to reproduce what they saw for 5 minutes. The expert chess player got 90% correct on the first try and the beginners only got 40% correct. In the second

Human Memory Organization. Human memory organization‚ from the outside‚ seems to be quite a difficult thing to analyse‚ and even more difficult to explain in black and white. This is because of one main reason‚ no two humans are the same‚ and from this it follows that no two brains are the same. However‚ after saying that‚ it must be true that everyone’s memory works in roughly the same way‚ otherwise we would not be the race called humans. The way the memory is arranged‚ is probably the most

working memory model consists of four components. The central executive which controls and co-ordinates the operation of two subsystems‚ the phonological loop and the visuo-spatial sketchpad. The central executive controls attention and coordinates the actions of the other components‚ it can briefly store information‚ but has a limited capacity. The phonological loop consists of two parts‚ the articulatory control system and the phonological store. The articulatory control system (the inner voice) where

The phonological loop is the inner ear and inner voice and is responsible for processing phonological information. The visuo-spatial sketch pad is the inner eye and processes visual and spatial information. Having separate slave systems explains how people are able to perform two tasks at the same time (one visuo-spatial and one phonological)‚ and accounts
