Procedural Memory: Definition and Examples View full size image. Procedural memory is a part of the long-term memory that is responsible for knowing how to do things, also known as motor skills. As the name implies, procedural memory stores information on how to perform certain procedures, such as walking, talking and riding a bike.n a 1997 study of Alzheimer patients, it was discovered that procedural memory functions better than declarative memory because procedural memory is less dependent on the affected regions of the brain such as the basal ganglia and the cerebellum.

Encoding (memory) Visual encoding is the process of encoding images and visual sensory information. Visual sensory information is temporarily stored within the iconic memory before being encoded into long-term storage.ncoding is the crucial first step to creating a new memory. It allows the perceived item of interest to be converted into a construct that can be stored within the brain, and then recalled later from short-term or long-term memory.

Amnesia Amnesia is loss of ability to memorise information and / or to recall information stored in memory. What we call memory, the ability to recollect our lifes experiences, is a very complex process within the brain.mnesia is most commonly associated with either brain damage through injury or degeneration of brain cells in dementia. In both cases, brain cells are lost, and due to the complex network connecting cells within the human brain, they cannot be replaced.

Chapter 6: Learning and memory 1 The encoding specificity principle (Wiseman & Tulving, 1976) essentially means that memory performance depends directly on the similarity between the information in memory and the information available at retrieval. 2  Kenealy (1997) is an example of this.

Sigmund Freud Freud stated explicitly that the concept of the unconscious was based on the theory of repression. He postulated a cycle in which ideas are repressed, but remain in the mind, removed from consciousness yet operative, then reappear in consciousness under certain circumstances.reud originally allowed that repression might be a conscious process, but by the time he wrote his second paper on the Neuro-Psychoses of Defence (1896), he apparently believed that repression, which he referred to as the psychical mechanism of (unconscious) defense, occurred on an unconscious level.

- In this model, the structural components of memory consist of what is called a “sensory store” (where data picked up by your senses is temporarily stored), short-term memory, and long-term memory. Information is first acquired through the senses, where it then enters the short-term memory store.orking memory (which could also be called “memory for now”) contains all that we are conscious of and working on right now. Information is held long enough to make a decision and then either is lost or sent on to storage for later use. If it’s transferred to form a memory for later use, it becomes long-term memory.

- Psychologically, forgetting is the temporary or permanent inability to retrieve a piece of information or a memory that had previously been recorded in the brain. Forgetting differs from amnesia in that forgetting is usually regarded as a normal phenomenon. Also, forgetting involves specific pieces of content, whereas amnesia affects a relatively broad category of memories or wipes out an entire segment of memory.
