Question 1:
Autobiographical memory contains both ... and ... components.
a) remember; know
b) semantic; episodic
c) semanticisation; remote
d) explicit; implicit
Question 2:
Neuropsychology or cognitive psychology textbooks often describe the case of a patient
called H.M., whose memory was affected by neurosurgery. He can recall events prior to
surgery, but he can remember only about six new items for a short period. Supporters of
the Atkinson-Shiffrin model will cite this case because ...
a) He apparently cannot transfer material from short-term memory to long-term.
b) his semantic memory is much better than his episodic long-term memory.
c) he apparently can shift material directly from sensory memory to long-term memory.
d) the control processes are clearly disassociated from the structural features of his
memory processes.
Question 3:
What is the advantage of trying to learn something using deep (meaning-related)
processing rather than strategies like mnemonics?
a) It helps keep track of the order of learned items.
b) It is better at preventing ‘remembering’ details that were never actually present but fit
with the meaning of the items.
c) It creates more retrieval paths for the memory.
d) It relies less on having background knowledge about the topic being learned.
