In this section we will consider the two types of memory, explicit memory and implicit memory, and then the three major memory stages: sensory, short-term, and long-term (Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968). Then, in the next section, we will consider the nature of long-term memory, with a particular emphasis on the cognitive techniques we can use to improve our memories. Summarize the capacities of short-term memory and explain how working memory is used to process information in it.Īs you can see in Table 9.1, “Memory Conceptualized in Terms of Types, Stages, and Processes,” psychologists conceptualize memory in terms of types, in terms of stages, and in terms of processes.Explain the function and duration of eidetic and echoic memories.
Compare and contrast explicit and implicit memory, identifying the features that define each.
