Question 1

According to Tulving and other researchers,the ability to maintain episodic memories requires the ability to:

Accepted Answer

Tulving and other researchers suggest that maintaining episodic memories requires the ability to perform "mental time-travel," which involves reliving and reviewing past experiences. Option A is specifically related to avoidance behavior and not necessarily episodic memory. Option B pertains to spatial memory, which is a related but distinct aspect of memory processing. Option C refers to nonverbal communication, which is not necessarily related to episodic memory.

Question 2

You know that cows produce milk.If this knowledge has grown out of your repeated experiences observing cows being milked,this would suggest that:

Accepted Answer

Semantic memory is the general knowledge of the world, including facts and concepts, and it grows out of episodic memories, which are personal experiences. In this case, observing cows being milked repeatedly creates an episodic memory, which leads to the general knowledge that cows produce milk, a semantic memory. Therefore, choice B is the best answer. Option C and D are not accurate because both episodic and semantic memories require repeated exposures or learning for their formation. Option A is not an accurate statement because episodic and semantic memory are separate systems that do not necessarily grow out of each other.

Question 3

Which of the following demonstrates Tulving's idea about when episodic and semantic memories develop?

Accepted Answer

Tulving's idea is that semantic memory develops before episodic memory, meaning that we need to have a basic understanding of certain concepts (like what a picnic is) before we can create specific memories about them (like going on a picnic). Therefore, option B is correct as it states that one must know what a picnic is before remembering going on one.

Question 4

Which of the following is false regarding semantic memory?

Accepted Answer

Semantic memory is not tagged with spatial and temporal context. It is a type of long-term memory that involves general knowledge about the world, such as facts, concepts, and ideas. It is often contrasted with episodic memory, which involves personal experiences and is tied to a specific context. A, B, and D are true regarding semantic memory.

Question 5

Which of the following is true regarding episodic memory?

Accepted Answer

Episodic memory can be communicated in a format other than that in which it was acquired. It refers to our personal memories of specific events, experiences, and situations that occurred at a particular place and time. These memories can be verbally or nonverbally shared with others.

Answer: D
 Several exposures to the information are necessary in order for it to be learned is not true regarding episodic memory. Episodic memory is a type of long-term memory that allows us to recall specific events, experiences, and situations from our past. It is often associated with learning from a single exposure to a unique experience.

Therefore, only choice A is true regarding episodic memory.

Question 7

Which of the following is an example of an episodic memory?

Accepted Answer

Episodic memory refers to the memory of specific events or experiences that occurred at a particular time and place. Remembering the details of a first date is an example of an episodic memory because it involves recalling details about a specific event. B, C, and D, on the other hand, are examples of semantic memory, which involves general knowledge and facts that are not tied to specific experiences.

Question 8

According to Endel Tulving,which type of memory stores facts and general world knowledge?

Accepted Answer

According to Endel Tulving, semantic memory stores facts and general world knowledge, while episodic memory stores personal experiences and events. Implicit memory and nondeclarative memory refer to memory that is not consciously retrieved, such as skills and habits.

Question 9

H.M.could learn to read mirror-reversed text.This is an example of:

Accepted Answer

H.M. was able to learn mirror-reversed text through implicit memory, which involves the acquisition of skills or procedures without conscious awareness. Explicit memory, on the other hand, involves conscious and intentional learning of facts or events. Declarative memory refers to the conscious recall of facts, events, or concepts. Metamemory involves knowledge and awareness of one's own memory processes.

Question 10

Episodic memories are _____ memories,and semantic memories are ____memories .

Accepted Answer

Episodic memories (specific events or episodes) and semantic memories (facts and general knowledge) are both types of declarative memory, which refers to memories that can be consciously recalled.

Question 11

Which of the following explains the relationship between episodic and semantic memory?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Which of the following explains the relationship...

Question 12

According to Endel Tulving,which type of memory stores specific autobiographical events?

Accepted Answer

Endel Tulving is a prominent researcher in the field of memory, specifically known for his work on the different memory systems. According to Tulving, episodic memory is defined as memory for specific autobiographical events that can be placed in a specific time and place. This type of memory is different from semantic memory, which is memory for facts and general knowledge, and from implicit (nondeclarative) memory, which is memory for skills and procedural information that is difficult to verbalize. Therefore, the best choice for the type of memory that stores specific autobiographical events is A) episodic memory.

Question 13

If you have recently attended several parties,you may have a hard time remembering the details of the events that occurred at any one particular party.Your difficulty demonstrates that a(n)_______ can be ______ by exposure to similar information.

Accepted Answer

Episodic memory refers to the specific details and events of a particular experience, such as a party. The difficulty in remembering the details of a specific party after attending multiple similar parties suggests that episodic memory can be weakened by exposure to similar information. Semantic memory, on the other hand, refers to general knowledge about the world and is not affected by exposure to similar information in the same way.

Question 14

One difference between episodic and semantic memory is that episodic memory ______,while semantic memory _______.

Accepted Answer

Episodic memory is unique in that it can be acquired in a single exposure (e.g., remembering a specific event), whereas semantic memory, which involves facts and general knowledge, usually requires repetition or multiple exposures to be firmly established.

Question 15

The types of memories that are NOT always consciously accessible and are difficult to verbalize are called:

Accepted Answer

Nondeclarative memories are those that are not always consciously accessible and are difficult to verbalize. These types of memories include skills, habits, conditioning, and emotional responses. They are also referred to as implicit memories. Episodic memories and explicit memories are types of declarative memories, which can be consciously recalled and verbalized.

Question 16

Which of the following is an example of semantic memory?

Accepted Answer

Semantic memory is the memory of knowledge about the world, including concepts, facts, and general knowledge. Knowing that lemons have a sour taste is an example of semantic memory because it is a piece of knowledge about a concept (lemons). The other options involve personal experiences or episodic memories, which are not examples of semantic memory.

Question 17

Tulving proposed that:

Question 18

Which of the following statements demonstrates that some memories are accessible to conscious recollection?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Which of the following statements demonstrates that...

Question 19

If you can remember what happened on your first day of school,you are using your:

Accepted Answer

Episodic memory is the type of memory that involves the recollection of specific personal experiences and events, such as the details of your first day of school. This type of memory is distinct from semantic memory, which involves the recall of general knowledge and facts, as well as implicit memory and nondeclarative memory, which involve unconscious or procedural learning that does not involve conscious recall of information. Therefore, the best choice in this case would be A) Episodic memory.

Question 20

The famous patient known as H.M.:

Accepted Answer

H.M. suffered from severe anterograde amnesia, meaning he could not form new long-term memories after his surgery. This was the primary reason for his involvement in ongoing research and testing by many different researchers over the years. While his surgery did help reduce the severity and frequency of his epileptic seizures, it also resulted in the loss of some of his abilities, such as the ability to form new long-term memories. However, there is no evidence to suggest that he lost several IQ points or that he could only recognize those researchers he had worked with for many years.
