How Big Is Human Memory, Or on Being Just Useful Enough
Downloaded from learnmem.cshlp.org on September 29, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press REVIEW Yadin Dudai How Big Is Human Memory, Department of Neur0bi010gy or On Being Just Useful Enough The Weizmann Institute of Science Reh0v0t 76100 Israel We are, in many respects, what we remember. But how much do we do? So far, science has provided only a very partial answer to this riddle. The magical number seven, plus or minus two, seems to constrain the capacity of our immediate memory (Miller 1956). But surely its constraints dissipate when memories settle in long-term stores. Yet how big are these stores? If we combine all of our factual knowledge and personal reminiscence, childhood scenes and memories of the past day, intimate experiences and professional expertisemhow many items are there, that, combined together, mold us into unique individuals? The answer is not simple, and neither is the question. For example, what is an item in long-term memory? And how can we measure it, being sure that we unveil memory capacity and not merely the occasional ability to tap it? Such theoretical and practical difficulties, no doubt, have contributed to the fact that the capacity of human memory is still an enigma. Yet, despite the inherent and undeniable complexities, the issue deserves to be retrieved, once in a while, from the oblivions of the collective memory of the scientific community. (For a selection of earlier discussions of the size of human long-term memory, see Galton 1879; Landauer 1986; Crovitz et al. 1991.) Folk Psychology and When confronted with the issue, many tend to provide an intuitive Early Views estimate of the size of their memory, based either on belief or introspection or both.

Encoding: a Cognitive Perspective Fergus I
Encoding: A cognitive perspective Fergus I. M. .Craik $he group of scientists given the task of defining and analyzing the concept ,dencoding at the Palisades meeting agreed that encoding refers to 'the set rbf processes involved in transforming external events and internal thoughts into both temporary and long-lasting mural representations'. This pithy defi- nition raises an immediate host of questions, however, including: How are the 'cognitive' processes we experience during encoding related to the 'physiological' processes that are presumed to occur after the person's attention has turned to sth her matters? Are different encoding operations required for the optimal encoding of procedures, facts and events into different memory systems? What roles do both attention and intention play in the encoding prwess? What other factors affect encoding in a lawful fashion? What is the relationship of rncoding to the later retrieval of the same event? What can we learn about rncoding, storage and retrieval processes from clinical cases of impaired memory? Finally, can we construct a viable science of memory that must presumably give plausible accounts of the facts at the levels of experience, cognitive models, dynamic neural processes, biochemistry, pharmacology, ctc., and provide mapping rules that connect these very disparate levels of description? To provide some organization and coherence to these many different questions, and as a starting point for answering some of them, I will first describe the levels of processing (LOP) framework proposed by Craik and I.ockhart (1972) and elaborated in later articles by Craik and Tulving (1975) and Craik (1983,2002b). One major assumption embodied in the LOP perspective is that memory is not a separate faculty in either cognitive or neurological terms, but rather is one aspect of the overall cognitive system whose structures and processes are also involved in attention, perception, comprehension and action.

A Meeting of Minds: Learning and Memory in 1999
Downloaded from learnmem.cshlp.org on September 26, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press COMMENTARY Emily P. Huang A Meeting of Minds: Learning Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Memory in 1999 Cold Spring Harbor, New York 11724 USA Introduction In late spring a diverse group of scientists converged on the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory to meet and discuss the unwieldy, growing field of learning and memory research. The Learning and Memory meeting, held April 28–May 2, drew researchers in neurophysiology, behavior, computational neurobiology, cognitive psychology, and molecular biology, all eager to disseminate their particular points of view as well as to learn from colleagues they might otherwise rarely see. When encompassing a topic as broadly defined as “learning and memory”, one quickly realizes that no single approach or system predominates. The scientists at the meeting discussed operant conditioning in Aplysia, courtship conditioning in Drosophila, central pattern generators in invertebrates, motor learning in the cerebellum, and hippocampus-based memory in rats and primates, among other systems. Although it would be impossible to summarize all of this work in a brief report, the following overview offers highlights of the rich and varied interchange at this meeting. The Role Debate over the role of the hippocampus in mammalian memory of the Hippocampus continues to run high, as amply demonstrated during this meeting. To in Memory study this problem, researchers are updating the standard approaches, such as examining the effects of hippocampal inactivation or recording from multiple neurons in this region. Heading the lineup, Richard G. Morris (University of Edinburgh Medical School) reported on a method of reversibly inactivating hippocampal function in rats using the AMPA receptor antagonist LY293558 (R.G.

People overestimate their knowledge, at times claiming knowledge of concepts, events, and people that do not exist and cannot be known, a phenomenon called overclaiming. What underlies assertions of such impossible knowledge? We found that people overclaim to the extent that they perceive their personal expertise favorably. Studies 1a and 1b showed that self-perceived financial knowledge positively predicts claiming knowledge of nonexistent financial concepts, independent of actual knowledge. Study 2 demonstrated that self-perceived knowledge within specific domains (e.g., biology) is associated specifically with overclaiming within those domains. In Study 3, warning participants that some of the concepts they saw were fictitious did not reduce the relationship between self-perceived knowledge and overclaiming, which suggests that this relationship is not driven by impression management.

CONTACT: Jeffrey J. Sussman 212.895.7951 [email protected] ISRAELI RESEARCHERS TO PARTICIPATE IN EUROPEAN COMMISSION FLAGSHIP PROJECT REHOVOT, ISRAEL—January 28, 2013—The European Commission has officially announced the selection of the Human Brain Project (HBP) as one of its two Future Emerging Technologies (FET) Flagship projects. The new project will federate European efforts to address one of the greatest challenges of modern science: understanding the human brain. The goal of the Human Brain Project: Pull together all our existing knowledge about the human brain and reconstruct the brain, piece by piece, in supercomputer- based models and simulations. Such models offer the prospect of a new understanding of the human brain and the diseases that affect it, as well as advancing completely new computing and robotic technologies. The European Commission supported this vision, announcing that it has selected the HBP as one of two projects to be funded through the new FET Flagship Program, which supports highly innovative technology. Federating more than 80 European and international research institutions, the Human Brain Project are slated to continue for ten years (2013-2023). The total cost is estimated at € 1.19 billion, to be supplied from various sources. The project will be coordinated at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, by neuroscientist Prof. Henry Markram and co-directors Profs. Karlheinz Meier of Heidelberg University, Germany, and Richard Frackowiak of Clinique Hospitaliere Universitaire Vaudoise (CHUV) and the University of Lausanne (UNIL). Israeli scientists have been involved in the Project from its inception; their significant role is testament to the high position Israeli science holds at the forefront of international brain research.
