What is Memory?
“Memory proper…is the knowledge of a former state of mind after it has already once dropped from consciousness; or rather it is the knowledge of an event, or fact, of which meantime we have not been thinking, with the additional consciousness that we have thought or experienced it before.”
William James (1892)Principles of Psychology

How do we define memory?Types of memory:• Recollection of a specific event – episodic • Knowledge of facts - semantic• Holding information “in mind” - working• Feeling that something is familiar - episodic• “Remembering” to do something - prospective• Improvement with experience (learning) - priming• Habits, skills, conditioning
• These are each associated with different types of brain processes

My General Approach
• Memory is complicated
• To understand memory, we need to look at it from several angles:– Functional– Neural
• Research Methods:– Behavioral studies– Lesion studies– Brain imaging studies

Episodic Encoding
• encoding: the processes that initially transform an experience into a durable memory trace
• consists of a structural change in the nervous system – unit–to–unit changes in synaptic strength
• episodic encoding: processes that yield a durable memory trace such that an event can be subsequently consciously retrieved
Can be understood at the neural and at the psychological levels

Levels of Processing(Craik & Lockhart, 1972; Craik & Tulving, 1975)
Stimuli / Events can be processed at different “levels”
Encoding = incidental by-product of the active perceptual and cognitive processing carried out during an event
“Deeper” processing = more effective encoding
Shallow (sensory aspects)
Deep (derived aspects)
structural: perceptual features of the presented stimulus phonological/lexical: convert stimuli to speech-based codes semantic: access and evaluate the meaning of the text

Transfer Appropriate Processing
How different from LOP?
- TAP includes a role for retrieval..
TAP: A process leads to better memory NOT because it is deeper, but because it is appropriate for the kind of test that will be conducted.
But semantic encoding followed by semantic cue BEST, thus semantic encoding may lead to better cue specificity.. (Watkins (1979) cue overload principle..)

Encoding Specificity• Tulving (1972)
• The experience of recollection relies on the interaction between a cue and a memory trace– “Ecphory”
• You can’t say that one type of encoding is better than another because you need to consider the interaction between the retrieval cue and the trace that was produced at encoding.
• Example: “weak” vs. “strong” cues– Weak: fruit--> flower– Strong: bloom-->flower

Encoding Specificity Experiment
• 2 study conditions:– Weak cue: fruit--> bloom– No cue: bloom
• 2 cued-recall conditions:– Weak cue: fruit: _______– Strong cue: flower: _______
• Are strongly associated words always better retrieval cues?

– in soundproof booth on 5th floor, with instructions to visualize basement room before learning items.

Spacing / Lag effect• greater lags between practice/study trials yield better memory
“with any considerable number of repetitions a suitable distribution of them over a space of time is decidedly more advantageous than the massing of them at a single time” (Ebbinghaus, 1885)

Understanding Distributed Practice
Deficient processing: during massed/short lag trials, the second occurrence of an item is not processed fully
• less attention to items just processed
Encoding variability: longer lags result in more variable encoding
• variable encoding yields a richer memory trace permitting accessfrom multiple routes
• variability may derive from random stimulus fluctuations across time (Estes’ stimulus sampling theory)
Consolidation – distributing practice may enhance subsequent memory because initial trace has had time to consolidate

Von Restorff Effect
FoxLionCowGiraffeMotorcycleSheepDeerMouseHorse
• Derived from an experiment by von Restorff(1933)
• In these experiment, a list of items is presented and one item deviates in some way from the others
• “Isolate” item is typically remembered better than other items
• This suggests that distinctiveness also influences memory encoding

Focus on similarities or differences?
• Craik and Lockhart’s LOP view suggests that deep encoding produces a more distinctive record of each event, thereby leaving a stronger memory
• Effects of organization on memory suggest that focusing on similarities among multiple events also facilitate memory
• Hunt & Einstein (1981): – Relational and item-specific information help boost
memory
![Page 76: Cognitive Neuroscience of Human Memoryscs.ipm.ac.ir/seminars/Lecture/Lecture 86/Davachi/Leila davachi... · What is Memory? “Memory proper…is the knowledge of a former state of](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030503/5ab02fa07f8b9a25088e645c/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Hunt & Einstein (1981)• List of words from 6 categories
• 3 tasks:1. Relational: sort words into each category2. Item-specific: rate each word for pleasantness3. Combined: Do both
• Results: – Recall much better in combined than in either relational or item-
specific encoding conditions– Clustering greater in relational and combined than item-specific
conditions
• These findings suggest that relational and item-specific processing both enhance encoding, but in different ways

Conclusions- LOP highlights role of type of encoding, not merely time spent encoding, in successful memory formation
• However, slightly circular reasoning.. • No role for retrieval..
-TAP highlight role of the match between encoding and retrieval
• However, semantic encoding still wins out..
- What gets encoded? • Distinction between the nominal stimulus and the functional stimulus (Carmichael et al, 1932)

Monkey Models of Amnesia
DNMS impaired but other forms of learning (e.g. visual discrimination, motor skills..) are intact.

• H.M. had the entire MTL resected bilaterally
- Do you have to have this much damage to have resulting amnesia, or are there particular MTL regions responsible for the amnesia?
- What is the hippocampus needed for? What about rhinal cortex?

• Two amnesic patients studied by Squire and colleagues had damage to only one region (CA1) of the hippocampus
- suggests that damage limited to the hippocampus can cause a specific memory impairment (Zola-Morgan et al., 1986).
• As add more damage (to other regions of the hippocampus and to the surrounding MTL regions) the amnesic syndrome becomes more severe.

However, doesn’t mean that all MTL structuresmediate the same function!!

• 3 patients with early, selective hippocampal insult• Anterograde amnesia for everyday, episodic events• Relative sparing of semantic learning abilities
– competent in speech & language– learned to read, write, & spell – in normal range on tests of verbal intelligence
Is the hippocampus required for semantic learning?
(Vargha-Khadem et al., 1997)
Considered in conjunction with H.M.’s performance, these results suggest that it may be the rhinal cortex and not the hippocampus that is important for semantic learning

Mood–Congruent Memory
Cue–dependent nature of memory has important implications for mental health. Biases to retrieve mood–congruent experiences can create “snowball” effects.
(Teasdale & Russell, 1983)

Process DissociationAssumptions: different processes can contribute to memory
- Automatic- Intentional (recollective)
Method: Phase 1 - Hear list of wordsPhase 2 - FULL - read list of words
DIVIDED - read list + distraction task
TEST - Word stem completionInclusion - fill in with word from either phase, or any wordExclusion - Do not fill in a word from the study
Analysis: Inclusion = R + A(1-R)Exclusion = A(1-R)Inclusion = R + ExclusionR = Inclusion - ExclusionA = Exclusion/1-R

Retrieval Yields a Robust Encoding Effect
• increasing the # of free recall tests immediately after learning yields superior recall 1 week later
• retrieval is an effective encoding event

Retrieval is Superior When There is Contextual / Cue–Support
RECALL:• Free recall
Context–?• Category–cued recall
Context+Animals–?Context+Fruits?
STUDY:• Lists of words from a category• Study N lists
(Tulving & Psotka, 1971) Memory failure can be attributed to loss of access to appropriate retrieval cues
