Download or read book Theories of Memory written by Alan F. Collins and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theories of Memory brings together some of the most influential researchers currently working in the area of memory. Individual chapters cover a wide range of key areas of memory research, but throughout the book the main emphasis is on theoretical issues, how they relate to existing empirical work and what implications they have for future work in the area. Topics covered include: the development of different memory abilities, the case for different subsystems in memory, and the structure of different memory subsystems. Different views on the level of explanation offered by our theories of memory are discussed. Not only do the contributions reveal diversity in the theoretical concerns within memory research, they also illustrate a considerable range in the type of evidence that is brought to bear on these concerns. The diversity within the book reflects the vigour of modern research into memory and shows how it continues to be an important research area. Theories of Memory provides a unique state-of-the-art perspective on this key aspect of cognitive psychology.

Download or read book The Science of False Memory written by C. J. Brainerd and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-05 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Findings from research on false memory have major implications for a number of fields central to human welfare, such as medicine and law. Although many important conclusions have been reached after a decade or so of intensive research, the majority of them are not well known outside the immediate field. To make this research accessible to a much wider audience, The Science of False Memory has been written to require little or no background knowledge of the theory and techniques used in memory research.Brainerd and Reyna introduce the volume by considering the progenitors to the modern science of false memory, and noting the remarkable degree to which core themes of contemporary research were anticipated by historical figure such as Binet, Piaget, and Bartlett. They continue with an account of the varied methods that have been used to study false memory both inside and outside of the laboratory. The first part of the volume focuses on the basic science of false memory, revolving around three topics: old and new theoretical ideas that have been used to explain false memory and make predictions about it; research findings and predictions about false memory in normal adults; and research findings and predictions about age-related changes in false memory between early childhood and adulthood. Throughout Part I, Brainerd and Reyna emphasize how current opponent-processes conceptions of false memory act as a unifying influence by integrating predictions and data across disparate forms of false memory.The second part focuses on the applied science of false memory, revolving around four topics: the falsifiability of witnesses and suspects memories of crimes, including false confessions by suspects; the falsifiability of eyewitness identifications of suspects; false-memory reports in investigative interviews of child victims and witnesses, particularly in connection with sexual-abuse crimes; false memory in psychotherapy, including recovered memories of childhood abuse, multiple-personality disorders, and recovered memories of previous lives. Although Part II is concerned with applied research, Brainerd and Reyna continue to emphasize the unifying influence of opponent-processes conceptions of false memory. The third part focuses on emerging trends, revolving around three expanding areas of false-memory research: mathematical models, aging effects, and cognitive neuroscience. False Memory will be an invaluable resource for professional researchers, practitioners, and students in the many fields for which false-memory research has implications, including child-protective services, clinical psychology, law, criminal justice, elementary and secondary education, general medicine, journalism, and psychiatry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on memory development has accumulated over the past few years. Given the number of relevant publications in the field, it becomes increasingly difficult to keep track of major advances in specific areas of memory development. This book illustrates 2 purposes: * to permit experts in the various subdomains of research in memory development to summarize recent findings concerning the respective roles of capacity, strategies, and knowledge in the acquisition of memory skills; and * to discuss cross-cutting topics such as the influence of individual differences, practical and educational implications, and the potential of longitudinal studies.

Download or read book Thinking Strategies for Solving Problems written by Mailoo Selvaratnam and published by Partridge Africa. This book was released on 2016-05-18 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive (thinking) strategies and skills are the tools for all types of thinking and problem solving. Competence in them is hence needed for effective learning and problem solving. Research suggests that many learning difficulties of students are due to their not being sufficiently competent in them. This monograph illustrates the use of five important problem solving strategies that would lead to more effective problem solving not only in science courses but also in our daily lives. Lecturers/ instructors/students at high school and tertiary education institutions should find the monograph useful. Since many problems in this monograph do not need science concepts, parts of the monograph may also be used by people without a science background.
Download or read book Memory Thinking and Language PLE Memory written by Judith Greene and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ten years prior to its original publication in 1987, cognitive psychology uncovered the increasingly important role of knowledge stored in memory and the integrated nature of cognitive processes. In Memory, Thinking and Language the author takes these three traditional topics and places them within the new cognitive approach. Judith Greene’s 1975 book Thinking and Language, proved to be a highly successful student resource. This book provides an equally clear introduction to complex ideas. It also emphasises the practical applications of cognitive psychology for teaching and learning as well as for everyday life.
Download or read book Forget Me Not The Neuroethical Case Against Memory Manipulation written by Peter A. DePergola II and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first philosophical monograph on the ethics of memory manipulation (MM), "Forget Me Not: The Neuroethical Case Against Memory Manipulation" contends that any attempt to directly and intentionally erase episodic memories poses a grave threat to the human condition that cannot be justified within a normative moral calculus. Grounding its thesis in four evidential effects – namely, (i) MM disintegrates autobiographical memory, (ii) the disintegration of autobiographical memory degenerates emotional rationality, (iii) the degeneration of emotional rationality decays narrative identity, and (iv) the decay of narrative identity disables one to seek, identify, and act on the good – DePergola argues that MM cannot be justified as a morally licit practice insofar as it disables one to seek, identify, and act on the good. A landmark achievement in the field of neuroethics, this book is a welcome addition to both the scholarly and professional community in philosophical and clinical bioethics.

Download or read book Implicit Memory written by Peter Graf and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The immense growth of research on implicit and explicit memory is making it difficult to keep up with new methods and findings, to gauge the implications of new discoveries, and to ferret out new directions in research and theory development. The present volume provides a status report of work on implicit and explicit memory in the three areas that have contributed the bulk of what is known about this domain -- cognitive psychology, lifespan developmental psychology, and neuropsychology. Highlighting developments in methods, critical findings, and theoretical positions, this volume outlines promising new research directions. By so doing, it provides the reader with a multi-disciplinary perspective on implicit and explicit memory, and thereby enables a cross- fertilization of ideas and research. The chapters that make up this volume were written by experts on the topic of implicit and explicit memory. These contributors were asked to write for a broad audience -- for their colleagues from allied disciplines, for new researchers, for advanced undergraduate and graduate students -- to help them gain a comprehensive overview of the mushrooming research on this topic, grasp the most fundamental empirical and theoretical issues, and focus on new research directions.
Download or read book Reasoning as Memory written by Aidan Feeney and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing acknowledgement of the importance of integrating the study of reasoning with other areas of cognitive psychology. The purpose of this volume is to examine the extent to which we can further our understanding of reasoning by integrating findings, theories and paradigms in the field of memory. Reasoning as Memory consists of nine chapters that make explicit links between basic memory process, and reasoning and decision-making. The contributors address a number of key topics including: the relationship between semantic memory and reasoning the role of expert memory in reasoning recognition memory and induction working memory and reasoning metamemory in reasoning. In addition, the chapters provide broad coverage of the field of thinking, and invite the intriguing question of how much there is left to explain in the field of reasoning when one has extracted the variance due to memory. This book will be of great interest to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers interested in reasoning or decision making, and to researchers interested in the role played in cognition by a variety of memory processes.
