Mathematical Models
• Signal detection theoryI spy in a signal detection paper:
ROC curvesd’ (D-Prime)Boring theoriesHits, misses, correct rejections and false
positives
• Powerful Model for recognition memory

Theoretical Assumptions
• Trace strength model based on normal distribution
• There is signal and there is noise

Computational Models
• E.g. Connectionism• A way of modelling the brain?• You can train these networks to do things
![Page 10: Memory and its disorders Models of memory function Chris Moulin School of Psychology University of Leeds c.j.a.moulin@leeds.ac.uk.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d035503460f949d6bd1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Neural Models
• E.g. Long Term Potentiation
![Page 11: Memory and its disorders Models of memory function Chris Moulin School of Psychology University of Leeds c.j.a.moulin@leeds.ac.uk.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d035503460f949d6bd1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
LTP
• Brain made up of billions of neurons, which are connected by synapses.
![Page 12: Memory and its disorders Models of memory function Chris Moulin School of Psychology University of Leeds c.j.a.moulin@leeds.ac.uk.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d035503460f949d6bd1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
more LTP
• Repeated activity of the neuron causes synapses to become potentiated - meaning they fire easier.
• Networks of neurons can be activated when only one neuron in that group is stimulated.
![Page 13: Memory and its disorders Models of memory function Chris Moulin School of Psychology University of Leeds c.j.a.moulin@leeds.ac.uk.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d035503460f949d6bd1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
even more LTP
• Further research found that after continued activity of neurons new synapses are grown to connect to other neurons.
• So networks of neurons can become massive e.g. one neuron can be connected to as many as 1000 other neurons.
• Associations in LTP are similar to associations in classical conditioning.

Neuroimaging Models
• E.g HERA.
![Page 15: Memory and its disorders Models of memory function Chris Moulin School of Psychology University of Leeds c.j.a.moulin@leeds.ac.uk.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d035503460f949d6bd1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Converging Evidence
Cognitive theory says that there is ability A and ability B and they are separate
If this is true, then they should be in separate areas (but it is not disproved if they’re not)
AB
Neuroscience Tests cognitive models

HERA
• Hemispheric Encoding/Retrieval AsymmetryEncoding – taking information inRetrieval – getting that information back
• For verbal materials:Left frontal lobe – encodingRight frontal lobe – retrieval

HERA – so what?
• HERA not generally supported by patient studies.
• Left sided activation is prevalent for any verbal material that is later remembered
• Largely PET-based and doesn’t extend to fMRI
• Does it help us understand memory and memory problems?E.g. Aging

Box and Arrow models
•The majority of memory models are this•But converging models are the most powerful

Procedural/Implicit
• Well learned skills tend not to decay too much• Cognitive measure: Priming• Laver & Burke (1993) Meta analysis: if
anything, older adults show more priming.• Light & Singh (1987). Nice memory test:

Reasons for forgetting
• decay of memory trace• retrieval problems - not lost but misplaced • interference between memory traces
• Interference is important in Stimulus-Response
• E.g. Hugo Munsterberg
![Page 28: Memory and its disorders Models of memory function Chris Moulin School of Psychology University of Leeds c.j.a.moulin@leeds.ac.uk.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d035503460f949d6bd1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Retroactive & proactive interference
• Interference - cornerstone of behaviourist approach to human verbal learning
• RI - new learning interferes with recall of old learninge.g. old and new mobile phone functions and buttons
• PI - old learning interferes with current learninge.g. friend’s new girlfriend’s name

Retrieval
• Explicit / Implicit retrievalDifference in awareness in retrieval
• Ecphoric / strategic retrieval (Moscovitch, 1992)Ecphoric retrieval: effortless retrieval on the base of a simple cueStrategic retrieval: effortful retrieval. Memory strategies required

Working Memory
• A new model : Baddeley and Hitch (1974)
'Perhaps short-term memory had no function other than to keep experimental psychologist amused ? it that were so, we would rather amuse ourselves in other ways' Baddeley

Working memory
• Think of working memory as short-term memory with some clever stuff added.
• Simultaneous storage and manipulation

Some critical themes
• Verbal Learning Approach - Interference• Memory as process - Levels of processing• Technology affects models• Neuropsychology tests models• Lack of congruity between models
• But models guide neuropsychologySemantic dementiaErrorless learning
