Cognition Final Guide Review
Questions and Complete Answers
latest 2024 - 2025
Memory - ✔✔Storage of experiences and information that we can erase
overwrite and add to.


Weights! - ✔✔What form does storage take in a nervous system?


Experience - ✔✔The statistical relationship between presynaptic and
postsynaptic neural activity.


Habituation - ✔✔When a response diminishes with a frequently repeated
stimulus.
It is an instance of weights changing.


Example of habituation - ✔✔A sea slug will withdraw it's gill when poked.
However, if you keep poking it he will stop withdrawing his gills.
If you live near train tracks, eventually you will barely notice when the train
goes by.


Is habituation memory? Why or why not? - ✔✔No. Retrieval from a memory
store is not necessary for habituation. Like habituation, memory includes
weights, but memories include relationships between things. It's not just
experience.


What is the Modal Model of Memory? - ✔✔An easy and adaptable model to
most metaphors. Good theory but old and probably mostly wrong.

, Three parts of the Modal Model of Memory? - ✔✔Sensory Register Short
Term Memory Long Term Memory


Sensory Register - ✔✔First stage of Modal Model. Huge capacity, decays
very quickly (within milliseconds). Raw visual, auditory and haptic information.


Short Term Memory - ✔✔Second stage of Modal Model. Limited capacity.
(5-9 items) decays quickly (within seconds).


Long Term Memory - ✔✔Third stage of Modal Model. Possibly unlimited
capacity. Possibly permanent.


According to Modal Model, how does Short Term Memory become Long Term
Memory? - ✔✔Rehearsal/Repetition.


Arrange the components of the Modal Model from smallest to largest. -
✔✔1) Short Term Memory
2) Sensory Register
3) Long Term Memory


What was the outcome of Averbach's dot experiment? - ✔✔A varied
number of dots were shown for varied lengths of time, and then asked to
estimate the number of dots. People are good with small amounts of dots,
and/or longer durations of time.


What is this?
