Memory

Looking at memory
We have the ideas of: reconstructing the past which consist of the way we tend to manufacture memory, as well as the influence of fading flashbulbs. Secondly, we have the notion of memory and the power of our suggestions. Inside of this realm is the eyewitness trial, vs. children’s testimonies. Even further in our inspection of what memory is as well as what it consists of we have the actual pursuit of memory. This is the means of measuring memory, and constructing models of memory. Finally, we build a three-box model of what memory is. This model consist of sensory memory, short-term memory, and long term memory. After all is said and done we mustn’t forget the biological components of our capacity to remember. Therefore, we must examine how are neurons and synapses change during the process of memorization. In other words where is memory located? How do are hormones contribute to our ability to remember? Furthermore, how do we remember? Is memory a rehearsal of some sort, if so why do we forget? Is forgetting related to decay, replacement, or interference of some sort? If so wouldn’t that mean that our environment or experience have more influence on our ability to remember than our biological dispositions?
