Memory
Compare:
| Learning vs. Memory |
| Acquisition vs. Retention & Retrieval |
| simultaneous vs. delayed matching to sample |
| Working memory vs. Reference Memory |
| Declarative vs. Procedural Memory |
| Active (working memory) vs. Passive (STM) |
| Retroactive Interference vs. Proactive Interference |
| consolidation failure vs retrieval failure |
***********************
Declarative Memory (includes the retrieval of reference memory into working memory)
To measure declarative memories a procedure that can be used
Delayed matching-to-sample
[note: the delay is introduced to study working memory; the subject's ability to do the task (to "know" the rules of the task) involves reference memory].
Procedural and Working memory can be measured with spatial memory tasks too:
- Radial Arm maze
- Morris' water maze
