2. The “unitary” view of memory. Not all researchers accept
   the idea that short-term memory and long-term memory
   are separate processes. There are other theories, sup-
   ported by evidence, that propose one system, centered on
   long-term memory, and propose that a great deal of what
   is called short-term memory occurs when information is
   retrieved from long-term memory.

ory: A reconsideration of mental storage capacity. Behav-

ioral and Brain Sciences, 24, 87–185.

3. Memory loss in Alzheimer’s disease. Patients with
   Alzheimer’s disease experience progressive loss of mem-
   ory as different structures are attacked by the disease.

4. Mental time travel in animals. Experiments with scrub
   jays, rats, and nonhuman primates have demonstrated
   parallels in their behavior to behaviors associated with
   mental time travel in humans.

CogLab

To experience these experiments for yourself, go to coglab.
wadsworth.com. Be sure to read each experiment’s setup
instructions before you go to the experiment itself. Otherwise,
you won’t know which keys to press.

Primary Labs

Serial position How memory for a list depends on an item’s

position on the list (p. 151).

Implicit learning How we can learn something without being

aware of the learning (p. 161).

Related Lab

Suffi x eff ect How adding an irrelevant item to the end of a list

affects recall for the fi nal items on a list in a serial position

experiment.
