(credit: modication of work by Cory Zanker) We may be top-notch learners, but if we don't have a way to store what we've learned, what good is the knowledge we've gained? We have an amazing capacity for memory, but how, exactly, do we process and store information? Are there dierent kinds of memory, and if so, what characterizes the dierent types? How, exactly, do we retrieve our memories? And why do we forget? This chapter will explore these questions as we learn about memory. 1This content is available online at <http://cnx.org/content/m55796/1.1/>.

FALSE MEMORY SYNDROME: "THE FEMALE MALADY" 1 ERIN BRADyt The theory of memory repression has been both relied on by adult survivors as evidence of sexual crimes committed against them, and endorsed by many of the higher courts in Canada, including the Supreme Court of Canada. Advocates of the false memory syndrome refute the scientific validity of repressed memories, and vigorously oppose their judicial acceptance, by contending that recovered memories of childhood abuse are more often the product of a therapeudic relationship gone wrong. An examination of the manner in which the false memory syndrome is being pleaded by defence counsel, and heard by Canadian courts, reveals that it is a decidedly gendered phenomenon and employed almost exclusively to describe female experience. The article explores the anti-women stereotypes which underlie the defence and seeks to demonstrate the extent to which the false memory syndrome represents a formidable obstacle to all survivors of sexual abuse seeking legal redress.

    Telling Incest: Narratives of Dangerous Remembering from Stein to Sapphire Janice Doane and Devon Hodges http://www.press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=10780 The University of Michigan Press, 2009. Chapter 5 The Science of Memory False-Memory Stories False Memory Syndrome Foundation members, largely those who have been accused of child abuse and expert witnesses on their behalf, have compelling reasons to insist that repressed memories of abuse be veri‹ed by clear and con- vincing empirical evidence, precisely the kind of evidence often lacking in incestuous abuse cases.1 While there are cases where a child with venereal dis- ease or a bleeding vagina is admitted to an emergency room and evidence obtained of abuse, signs of molestation may not be at all obvious. Adults have been mistakenly charged with abuse as a result of misreadings of physical evi- dence, resulting, for example, from incorrect assumptions about what “nor- mal” genitals and hymens are supposed to look like (Nathan and Snedeker, 180–81). And children enjoined to silence may long delay reports of abuse, with the result that physical marks of molestation, should they exist, would be healed by the time accusations are made. Without damning physical evidence, charges of incestuous abuse are hard to prove. If the memory wars re›ect deep ambivalence about the declining fortunes of patriarchal authority, they are sus- tained by problems with collecting incontrovertible evidence of sexual abuse, whether to vindicate accusers or the accused. What is debated are less tangible archives of the past. As we have seen, proponents of recovered memory focus on psychological processes, such as repression and dissociation, that long impede the recollection of sexual abuse.

  • Dr. MASAUD ANSARI REMEMBRING and FORGETTING: MEMORY (Lecture Series-1)
    REMEMBRING AND FORGETTING: MEMORY (Lecture Series-1) B.A. Ist (Subsidiary) (Fundamental/General Psychology) BY Dr. MASAUD ANSARI Department of Psychology, A.P.S.M. College, Barauni L. N. M. University, Darbhanga 19th M A Y 2 0 2 0 Memory Memory is learning that has persisted over time, information that has been stored and can be retrieved. To a psychologist, evidence that learning persists takes three forms: ▪ Recall—retrieving information that is not currently in your conscious awareness but that was learned at an earlier time. A fill-in-the-blank question tests your recall. ▪ Recognition—identifying items previously learned. A multiple-choice question tests your recognition. ▪ Relearning—learning something more quickly when you learn it a second or later time. When you study for a final exam or engage a language used in early childhood, you will relearn the material more easily than you did initially. Be thankful for memory. We take it for granted, except when it malfunctions. But it is our memory that accounts for time and defines our life. It is our memory that enables us to recognize family, speak our language, find our way home, and locate food and water. It is our memory that enables us to enjoy an experience and then mentally replay and enjoy it again. Our shared memories help bind us together as Irish or Aussies, as Serbs or Albanians. And it is our memory that occasionally pits us against those whose offenses we cannot forget. Conti… At the other extreme are people who would be gold medal winners in a memory Olympics.

    Psychological Review Copyright 1984 by the 1984, Vol. 91, No. 2, 269-276 American Psychological Association, Inc. Theoretical Note Automatic and Controlled Processing Revisited Richard M. Shiffrin Walter Schneider Indiana University University of Illinois The theory of automatic and controlled processing outlined in Schneider and Shiffrin (1977) and in Shiffrin and Schneider (1977) is defended in the present note. We argue that the criticisms of Ryan (1983) range from irrelevant to incorrect, based on a brief review of data from the 1977 articles and on some more recent publications. The evidence Ryan discusses comes from the prememorized-list paradigm, a par- adigm that undoubtedly involves automatic and controlled processes but probably not automatic detection and controlled search. We argue that a variety of mechanisms consistent with our general theory, some automatic and some controlled, could be operating in the prememorized-list paradigm and can explain the observed results. A theory of automatic and controlled processing effortless process that is not limited by short-term was outlined and given empirical support in the memory capacity, is not under direct subject control, articles of Schneider and Shiffrin (1977) and Shiffrin and performs well-developed skilled behaviors. It and Schneider (1977). The characteristics of both typically develops when subjects process stimuli in types of processes were established through ex- consistent fashion over many trials; it is difficult to amination of particular examples of each of these suppress, modify, or ignore, once learned.

These examples, of critical im- trolled processing is often slow, generally serial, ef- portance in many search and attention tasks, were fortful, capacity limited, subject regulated, and is termed automatic detection and controlled search, used to deal with novel or inconsistent information.

  • 4.4 TYPES of MEMORY the Last Two Sections Focused on Nature of Memory and the Various Models of Memory
    4.1 INTRODUCTION Memory Consider the following examples: Do you know how to ride a bike? If you know, then how much do you think about rotating the pedals or balancing while riding the bike? How much time do you take while processing the information of a repeated television advertisement that you are watching? Do you remember the last time you met your school teacher? Instances mentioned above and other such instances, highlight the importance of memory in everyday life. The term memory refers to conscious retrieval of previously experienced information. So, for the above instances, the process of conscious retrieval of the experienced information is the part of the process. However, all instances involve different types of memory! A glance over the two preceding units on Perception and Learning, reflect that the two processes are important for human behavior along with Memory. Perception, learning and memory are closely linked. An object or event is perceived, learned, memorized and recalled, thereby helping the individual to adapt. In this unit, we shall turn our attention to the process of memory. In the first part of the unit, nature, scope and models of memory will be explained followed by types of memory. In the latter part of the unit, we shall summarize about the process of forgetting and the strategies to improve memory. 4.2 NATURE AND SCOPE OF MEMORY What did you eat in dinner yesterday? What is the name of your best friend? Do you know how to drive a car or ride a cycle? How did you feel when you got highest marks in your class? The mental process you used to answer all of these questions is known as memory.
