21. Match the memory that these structures would store: (Amygdala, Hippocampus, Cerebellum, Pre-Frontal Cortex) 

 

a. After a stroke, Person A has Anterograde Amnesia and can recall all their personal information but cannot create new memories due to damage to the:

             b. In #20, Person A’s test anxiety is likely due to which structure?

c. Person A realizes that memorizing facts in Sociology class isn’t working out, so they make deep meaningful connections of the concepts and are now earning As by using the:

d. “Arms out to the side, reach in touch your nose. Now reach out, touch this pen. Now stand on one foot…” Such an exam would test functioning of the:

 

22. In #21b, Person A can report vivid recollections of defining failures in their life, called  memories.

 

23. In one of Loftus’ memory manipulations (Loftus, 1975), participants watch a video of car accident (in which no barn appeared). After viewing the video, some participants were asked, “How fast was the white car going when it passed the barn while traveling along the country road?” others were asked, “Did you see a barn?”. The later testimony of this second group was less likely to include reports of a barn. Drivdahl & Zaragoza (2001) conducted several manipulations of memory where participants watched a video of a burglary (where no ring was stolen) and asked participants “Do you think the thief was disappointed that he did not find other jewelry besides the ring? Was the ring in a box? Did the ring have a gemstone?” These participants more likely to report “definitely” seeing the thief steal a ring in the original video. Explain both findings using Suggestibility, Misinformation, Reconstruction, and False Memory in a brief statement.

 

24. Describe a situation (either personal or generic/someone else) where imagining could “reconsolidate” the memory of the event, making the current memory not reflective of the actual event [see Module page; see prototype “Lost in a Mall” study, but don’t use lost in a mall as situation here]. 

 

25. Schacter’s Sins of Memory 6

            a. A parent says, “Nooo, remember dear, you loved that trip to Hershey Park.” Which sin?

            b. The Stereotypical Bias likely works as a mechanism via which memory type [see     item #17]?

c. In #23, participants later might say, “Well, yeah I remember questions about a ring [or barn] after the video, but, yeah, I think, yeah, definitely I did see it in the video, too…I think.” Why is this Misattribution? 

 

d. Entering your apartment, your children and dog are wrestling and knock over the bag of groceries. The next morning you find yourself asking, “Has anyone seen my keys?!” This sin is:

 

e. Person A often can’t get to sleep because what seems for hours they are lying there re-imagining the day’s events [did I do the right thing, did I look foolish, why didn’t I say that instead, etc]. Their anxiety and memory distortion likely connects to:
