    The Oscillator Based Associative Recall (OSCAR) Model was proposed by Browne, Preece and Hulme in 2000 [7] The OSCAR Model is another cue driven model of memory. In this model, the cues work as a pointer to a memory’s position in the mind. Memories themselves are stored as context vectors on what Brown calls the oscillator part of the theory.

    The Atkinson–Shiffrin memory model was proposed in 1968 by Richard C. Atkinson and Richard Shiffrin. This model illustrates their theory of the human memory. These two theorists used this model to show that the human memory can be broken in to three sub-sections: Sensory Memory, short-term memory and long-term memory. [9]

    Model of the Memory Process. Human memory is the process in which information and material is encoded, stored and retrieved in the brain. [1] Memory is a property of the central nervous system, with three different classifications: short-term, long-term and sensory memory. [2]

  6. Forgetting curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forgetting_curve

    The forgetting curve hypothesizes the decline of memory retention in time. This curve shows how information is lost over time when there is no attempt to retain it. [1] A related concept is the strength of memory that refers to the durability that memory traces in the brain. The stronger the memory, the longer period of time that a person is ...

  7. Information processing (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_processing...

    According to the Atkinson-Shiffrin memory model or multi-store model, for information to be firmly implanted in memory it must pass through three stages of mental processing: sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory. [7] An example of this is the working memory model. This includes the central executive, phonologic loop, episodic ...

  8. Dual process theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_process_theory

    In cognitive psychology, attention and working memory have also been conceptualized as relying on two distinct processes. [3] Whether the focus be on social psychology or cognitive psychology, there are many examples of dual process theories produced throughout the past. The following just show a glimpse into the variety that can be found.

  9. Memory - Wikipedia

    The working memory model. In 1974 Baddeley and Hitch proposed a "working memory model" that replaced the general concept of short-term memory with active maintenance of information in short-term storage. In this model, working memory consists of three basic stores: the central executive, the phonological loop, and the visuo-spatial sketchpad.
