Long-term Potentiation (LTP) - verified answers-enhanced firing of neurons after
repeated stimulation, resulting in the strengthening of synaptic transmission
memory reactivation - verified answers-process during consolidation where the
hippocampus replays neural activity associated with a memory and sends this
information to the cortex
multiple trace model - verified answers-model of consolidation proposing that the
hippocampus remains in active communication with cortical areas, even for remote
memories
prefrontal cortex - verified answers-front part of the brain involved in decision-making,
problem-solving, and other complex conitive unctions
reconsolidation - verified answers-process by which a retrieved memory becomes
fragile and needs to be consolidated again, making it susceptible to modification or
elimination
sleep-dependent memory consolidation - verified answers-idea that sleep enhances the
consolidation of memories
state-dependent learning - verified answers-idea that memory retrieval is better when a
person's internal state, such as mood or awareness, during retrieval matches their
internal state during encoding
tone-shock pairing - verified answers-an association between a neutral stimulus and an
aversive stimulus in classical conditioning
work in progress - verified answers-concept that memory is not static or fixed but is
constantly being constructed and remodeled in response to new learning and changing
conditions
autobiographical memory - verified answers-memory that pertains to personal
experiences and events in one's life
constructive nature of memory - verified answers-memories are constructed based on
actual events, along with additional factors like knowledge, experiences, and
expectations
