The three-store memory theory—an earlier theory of memory—suggested that memory

Question

The three-store memory theory—an earlier theory of memory—suggested that memory moved from sensory experience to a temporary store in the brain. Once there, if attended to, it would be transferred to a short-term memory store. If entered into a process called “rehearsal,” this short-term memory would enter long-term storage.

The levels-of-processing theory of memory came into being in part as an answer to the three-story theory. Rather than focusing on the notions of storage and rehearsal, this theory emphasized the role of process in the development of long-term memory. Theorists suggested that memories are formed inherently through the cognitive processes used to absorb information.

In this Discussion, you describe and analyze an occasion of long-term memory loss that you experienced. You then explain how to improve long-term memory function.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 3 a brief description of an example of long-term memory loss that you have experienced. Then explain your long-term memory loss within the context of the three-store memory theory and levels of processing memory theory. Finally, explain strategies you might use to improve your long-term memory function.

Explanation / Answer

I have lost one of long term memory of name of my nursery friend which I remembered till few days back. It was there in long term as per 3 store model because it had been long time since it was rehearsed.

As per level of processing approach it was at middle level of processing that is phonetic. It was not processed at semantic level. Though it was long term memory but procesaingpwas not deep.

Tips to impriveilong term memory

Use mnemonic devices like acronym imagery rhyme

Rehearse and process giving meaning that is at the level of deep processing

Organize the complex information before storing it

Get a healthy diet and good sleep
