  2. Deese–Roediger–McDermott paradigm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deese–Roediger...

    The Deese–Roediger–McDermott (DRM) paradigm is a procedure in cognitive psychology used to study false memory in humans. The procedure was pioneered by James Deese in 1959, but it was not until Henry L. Roediger III and Kathleen McDermott extended the line of research in 1995 that the paradigm became popular.

  3. Memory ordering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_ordering

    The memory order is said to be strong or sequentially consistent when either the order of operations cannot change or when such changes have no visible effect on any thread. [1] [4] Conversely, the memory order is called weak or relaxed when one thread cannot predict the order of operations arising from another thread.

  4. Methods used to study memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_used_to_study_memory

    The free recall does not use item pairs. Instead, participants study a list of items and then recall that list in the order that they retrieve the items from memory. In these experiments the data is drawn from the order in which items are recalled and the inter-response times. This data is used to develop models of memory storage and retrieval.

  5. Levels of Processing model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levels_of_Processing_model

    Modern studies show an increased effect of levels-of-processing in Alzheimer patients. Specifically, there is a significantly higher recall value for semantically encoded stimuli over physically encoded stimuli. In one such experiment, subjects maintained a higher recall value in words chosen by meaning over words selected by numerical order. [26]

  6. Measurement of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_of_memory

    Short-term memory has limited capacity and is often referred to as "working-memory", however these are not the same. Working memory involves a different part of the brain and allows you to manipulate it after initial storage. The information that travels from sensory memory to short-term memory must pass through the Attention gateway. The ...

  7. Modality effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modality_effect

    In memory experiments, the modality effect is an example of source clustering, which refers to the tendency of items presented in the same modality to be grouped together during recall. [6] Within-list manipulations of modality affect recall probability, order of recall, and grouping.

  8. Memory consolidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_consolidation

    Memory consolidation was first referred to in the writings of the renowned Roman teacher of rhetoric Quintillian.He noted the "curious fact... that the interval of a single night will greatly increase the strength of the memory," and presented the possibility that "... the power of recollection .. undergoes a process of ripening and maturing during the time which intervenes."

  9. Memory improvement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_improvement

    Memory improvement is the act of enhancing one's memory. Factors motivating research on improving memory include conditions such as amnesia , age-related memory loss , people’s desire to enhance their memory, and the search to determine factors that impact memory and cognition .
