Coding - - ANS✔️--The format in which information is stored. (How)
What is Procedural Memory? - - ANS✔️--Stores our knowledge of how to
do things. Includes memories of learned skills.
Unconcious Recall
Which case study shows that LTM has different stores? - - ANS✔️--Clive
Wearing- The episodic part of his brains were impaired due to his
amnesia. They had trouble recalling thier past.
His Semantic and procedural memory were unaffected.
,Wearing knew hoe read music sing and play the piano.
Supports Tulving Theory.

Brain scan studies provide evidence that there are 3 different stores
Benefits real-life applications
Negative Evaluation Points for LTM? - - ANS✔️--Problems with clinical
evidence- case studies ( lacks control of all variables)
Could be two instead of three- actually seperated as declarative and

What are the two explanations for forgetting? - - ANS✔️--Interfernece

patterns of street names when moving makes recalling older patterns
more difficult.
Retroactive interference effects recall in real-life situations
What was the Evaluation of this Study? - - ANS✔️--Extraneous Variables
- confounded results
Methodolgy used shows that its possible to research RI in real-life
