How does the transitive inference task demonstrate that rodent memory is flexible? OVERVIEW OF MULTIPLE MEMORY SYSTEMS General features of declarative vs. nondeclarative memory Squire’s Taxonomy of Memory – what are the components and how are they organized? Sleep and Memory Rats: What is a hippocampal place cell and what happens to their activity during sleep? Humans: what is hypnagogic mentation ? --Tetris and Sleep study : what were the groups? what did they do? what was found? why do the authors argue that remote memory is responsible? IMPLICIT MEMORY Priming : what is it? -Mitchell & Brown study of repetition priming with pictures: what did they do? what did they find? what are the features of visual repetition priming? what role does recognition play? -how do amnesics do on priming tasks (incl. patient EP )? -what brain areas are responsible for priming (especially as assessed in the word-stem completion task)? -generally, what happens to brain activity with priming? EMOTIONAL MEMORY What is the mere exposure effect ? -does it require conscious processing? -what does it tell us about emotional and declarative learning? What are the 3 structures we focused on within the limbic system? What is innate (unlearned) fear ? what is a US? What is conditioned fear ? what is a CS? What is the difference b/w Classical (Pavlovian) fear conditioning and Instrumental (Operant) fear conditioning ? Give an example of each. Why study conditioned fear in the lab?
