When Forgetting Preserves Memory
There has been a resurgence of interest in defining the circumstances leading to memory modifications. Studies have shown that reactivating a supposedly stable memory re-introduces a time-limited window of plasticity during which presentation of interfering material can cause long-term memory changes. The present study asks whether such memory changes can be prevented if people are instructed t...
متن کاملRetrieval-induced forgetting in episodic memory.
Participants learned the locations of 12 stimuli that were uniquely colored but could be grouped by shape (4 circles, 4 triangles, 4 crosses). Following the study, a retrieval-practice phase required participants to recall the colors of a subset of the stimuli (i.e., 2 circles, 2 triangles) using shape and location as cues. In a final test, participants recalled the colors of all 12 stimuli. Co...
متن کامل"Cardiac memory": a struggle against forgetting.
One of the most remarkable characteristics of living organisms is their ability to alter their behavior by learning. Human beings excel at processing new information, retaining it in their memory, and using it to develop new ideas. Studies in the mollusk Aplysia showed that learning involves the strengthening and increased effectiveness of preexisting synapses. Over time, it has become clear th...
متن کاملRemembering and Forgetting: Narrative as Cultural Memory
This paper has two objectives: one is to explore the dialectics of remembering and forgetting, an issue traditionally neglected in psychological memory research; the other is to question the widespread dichotomy of individual and social memory. To do so, a cultural-historical perspective is outlined that allows us to conceive of individual memory as an inextricable part of an overarching cultur...
متن کاملExplicit Forgetting Algorithms for Memory Based Learning
Memory-based learning algorithms lack a mechanism for tracking time-varying associative mappings. To widen their applicability, they must incorporate explicit forgetting algorithms to selectively delete observations. We describe Time-Weighted, Locally-Weighted and Performance-Error Weighted forgetting algorithms. These were evaluated with a Nearest-Neighbor Learner in a simple classification ta...
