locations on the figure.

Label the different long-term memory systems.
SEE SCREEN SHOT
Identify the following ways in which false memories could be constructed.
correct
- A person may falsely remember that a word was part of a list, if it was related to words
that were in the list.
- A person may encode as true a story someone else tells about him.
- An imagined event will form a mental image that may be later recalled as a real event.
incorrect
- A person attends to details of an event.
- A person immediately rehearses information he learns.
Identify the following ways in which long-term memory can be distorted.
Correct
-recall of flashbulb memories
-reconstruction
-suggestibility
-cryptomnesia
-source amnesia
Incorrect
-intentional rehearsal
-chunking information
-using mnemonics
Match the memory principles with their corresponding examples.
Context dependent:
Tori always did her homework in her classroom and performed well on a subsequent
essay exam given in the same room.
(Context-dependent learning is encoding and retrieving information in similar situations
to facilitate memory retrieval.)
Spreading activation
When Etsuko heard the word "cat," she started thinking about her pet cats.
(Spreading activation refers to how the activation of one node activates other similar
nodes in a simultaneous manner.)
, State dependent
Midori was calm when studying, but anxious when taking the exam; she could not recall
some of the information.
(State-dependent learning refers to how similar internal states during encoding and
retrieval enhance memory retrieval. Experiencing a calm state during encoding but an
anxious state during retrieval interferes with memory.
Encoding specificity
When Akira smelled chocolate chip cookies, he recalled the first time he baked with his
mom.
(Stimulus cues encoded with an experience can serve as retrieval for long-term memory
of those experiences.)
Which of the following are examples of nondeclarative memory?
correct
- remembering how to tie a square knot
- forgetting you saw a movie trailer but wanting to go see the movie
- remembering how to paint a ceiling
incorrect
- telling someone what you had for brunch over the weekend
- telling someone the definition of psychology
Match the phases of the memory process with their corresponding steps in
studying for an exam.
Storage
maintaining information until you take a test
Encoding
reading and studying your textbook
Retrieval
recalling the definition of a key term from your memory
Consolidation
getting a good night's sleep before the exam
Match the memory principles with their corresponding examples.
Method of loci
Keaton increased his recall when learning the structures of the brain by visualizing them
as different rooms of a house.
Mnemonics
Benat made up a silly sentence, where each word started with the same letter as a word
he was trying to remember, to remind him of the order of operations in
