  2. Encoding (memory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoding_(memory)

    Memory has the ability to encode, store and recall information. Memories give an organism the capability to learn and adapt from previous experiences as well as build relationships. Encoding allows a perceived item of use or interest to be converted into a construct that can be stored within the brain and recalled later from long-term memory. [1]

  3. Elaborative encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elaborative_encoding

    Elaborative encoding is a mnemonic system that uses some form of elaboration, such as an emotional cue, to assist in the retention of memories and knowledge. [1] In this system one attaches an additional piece of information to a memory task which makes it easier to recall.

  4. Encoding specificity principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoding_specificity_principle

    The encoding specificity principle is the general principle that matching the encoding contexts of information at recall assists in the retrieval of episodic memories. It provides a framework for understanding how the conditions present while encoding information relate to memory and recall of that information. [1]

  5. Self-referential encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-referential_encoding

    Self-referential encoding is a method of organizing information in one's memory in which one interprets incoming information in relation to oneself, using one's self-concept as a background. [1] Examples include being able to attribute personality traits to oneself or to identify recollected episodes as being personal memories of the past. [2]

  6. Self-reference effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-reference_effect

    Social desirability ties into the different types of memory enhancement can vary for individual differences of past experiences. People's individual differences can show similar effects as the self-reference effect (Nakoa et al., 2012). The self-reference effect is a rich and powerful encoding process that can be used multiple ways.

  7. Remember versus know judgements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remember_versus_know...

    In his SPI model, Tulving stated that encoding into episodic and semantic memory is serial, storage is parallel, and retrieval is independent. [2] By this model, events are first encoded in semantic memory before being encoded in episodic memory; thus, both systems may have an influence on the recognition of the event.

  8. Memory and social interactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_and_social_interactions

    Priming, motor memory and classical conditioning are all examples of implicit memory. An example of implicit memory's effect on our social interactions has been illustrated by the pin-in-hand phenomenon. [46] This phenomenon was first observed by Claparède [46] while dealing with an amnesiac patient. Normally, he would shake the patient's hand ...

  9. Incidental memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incidental_memory

    Incidental memory is defined as the ability to acquire and recall information that was unintentionally encoded and stored. [1] It describes how memory formation occurs incidentally as a byproduct of engaging in other activities without conscious and deliberate efforts to remember and meaningfully process the information.
