    • What model of memory was introduced in the previous video?

    • What does semantic memory involve?
      Storing information according to its meaning
    • What type of memory is muscle memory classified as?
      Procedural memory
    • What are the three types of long-term memory?
      Semantic, procedural, and episodic
    • How can we define semantic, procedural, and episodic memory?
      • Semantic: Knowledge about the world
      • Procedural: Unconscious skills (muscle memory)
      • Episodic: Memories of personal events
    • What distinguishes declarative memories from non-declarative memories?
      Declarative memories can be put into words
    • What is an example of a semantic memory?
      Knowing Paris is the capital of France
    • What type of memory is associated with autobiographical events?
      Episodic memory
    • How do episodic memories differ from semantic memories in terms of time?
      Episodic memories are time-stamped
    • How are procedural memories typically recalled?
      Unconsciously
    • What is the relationship between episodic and semantic memories over time?
      Episodic memories can become semantic memories
    • What brain region is primarily associated with episodic memory?
      Prefrontal cortex
    • Which brain region is linked to procedural memory?
      Motor cortex and cerebellum
    • What does the research by Vagara Kadim suggest about episodic and semantic memories?
      They are separate processes
    • Who is a famous case study in psychology related to memory?
      Clive Wearing
    • What type of amnesia does Clive Wearing have?
      Retrograde and anterograde amnesia
    • What can Clive Wearing still do despite his amnesia?
      Play the piano
    • What are the strengths and weaknesses of using clinical case studies in memory research?
      Strengths:
      • In-depth investigation of memory
      • Unique insights into memory processes

      Weaknesses:
      • Limited generalizability
      • Unusual individual cases
    • What do modern cognitive neuroscience studies use to investigate memory?
      PET and fMRI scanners
    • How do procedural and semantic memories connect in language use?
      Automatic language production links them

      Amazon or the website
    • What is the significance of the phrase "it's like riding a bike"?
      It describes procedural memory retention
    • How does emotional coding influence episodic memory strength?
      It affects the strength of the memory
    • How does the depth of processing affect semantic memory strength?
      More links increase memory strength
