    When I was in third grade my brother told me to remember what page of his Garfield comic book he was on and remind him what it was after school, because he didn't have a bookmark. I still remember what page it was. It was 78. I don't know why I still haven't forgotten it.

      Because it may encourage a bonding situation where you thought it was a memorable moment. Which engraved into your mind.

      Because it was not a garfield comic book, it was actually a playboy mazagine where you saw a naked woman for the first time and got hard.

      That's why it's called metacognition. Understanding how to learn and think is an important skill and one of the big focuses of the new Common Core standards in American elementary schools. (I majored in education, so I just thought I'd throw that out there).

    I learned more about this Clive when I read The Power of Habit. If I recall correctly, his hypocampus was destroyed by the virus. The most interesting thing is that, even though he couldn't form new longterm memories, he could still develop new habits. For example: After moving to a new address, same time everyday, he and his wife would go for a walk around the neighborhood. Eventually he just started going by himself. The problem is that he had no idea where he was going, it was all just intuition. When something unpredictable happened to interrupt his routine, he would "wake up" and realise he doesn't know where he is and where to go. Thank heavens his neighbors were familliar with him and nice enough to walk him back home when that happened.

    I had a head injury at age 13. "Our memories are may haunt us or sustain us but either way, they define us. Without them we are left to wander alone in the dark." When you said this, a chord was struck in my soul. I know the despair of being alone in the hospital wondering if I would ever see anyone I loved again. In reality, My Mother spent most of her hours during those 4 months at my bed side. I was told many people visited. Although I am able to recall very few visitors. Having been cute and popular at my Highschool, I had many gifts left to verify that in fact, I had a plethora of visitors. But my reality was and still is that I essentially spent 4 months alone.

    • @minimooster7258

      Isn't it because you spent a lot of time learning the piano piece but probably weren't paying that much attention to the conversation

    • @peachrei
      @peachrei 8 років тому +1

      +minimooster No, it's because playing the piano is stored in your procedural memory and the conversation is stored in your short-term memory, so Clive could remember how to play complex piano pieces but not what he said five minutes go.

    “Remembering’s dangerous. I find the past such a worrying, anxious place. “The Past Tense,” I suppose you’d call it. Memory’s so treacherous. One moment you’re lost in a carnival of delights, with poignant childhood aromas, the flashing neon of puberty, all that sentimental candy-floss… the next, it leads you somewhere you don’t want to go. Somewhere dark and cold, filled with the damp ambiguous shapes of things you’d hoped were forgotten. Memories can be vile, repulsive little brutes. Like children I suppose. But can we live without them? Memories are what our reason is based upon. If we can’t face them, we deny reason itself! Although, why not? We aren’t contractually tied down to rationality! There is no sanity clause! So when you find yourself locked onto an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember there’s always madness. Madness is the emergency exit… you can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened. You can lock them away… forever.”

    I find myself thinking a lot about memory lately because I have started learning arabic at night. It's really difficult (especially compared to the Spanish I learned in high school and college). The best way I found so far is to group words and phrases in the way we group phrases in English. For instance, when we contemplate something, we are taught to question "who, what, when, where, why, and how" in an almost rhythmic fashion. So I use the same rhythmic flow to arabic: men, maa, meh-ta, eye-na, le-meh-ta, and kayfa. I have found in most areas of my life, noticing patterns and drawing connections always helps the memory to stick.

    This was so interesting, I really enjoyed it. One thing I wish was explained is how there's no such thing as "short term memory loss". It's explained really well how in short term, or working memory, it either gets forgotten or encoded into long term. The point of a short term is that it forgotten if not needed to remember long term. It's such a pet peeve of mine how movies have ingrained that short term memory loss is a real thing and people constantly throw it around. I feel like it's up there with people continuing to believe that we only use 10% of our brains.

    Hank, I thought I'd give you a personal experience - for the last two years, I have been dealing with a phobia for vaccination needles, to the point where I am now on exposure therapy for it (seriously - I have pictures of shots being done on the filing cabinet next to me). I've had a lot of theories as to why I was afraid of them; after watching this, my guess is that it's a behavioral thing, because I've always reacted poorly, and associative, because I had a vasal vagal response at one point which later triggered depression as a result. So props for helping me figure this stuff out, because it's really helpful to understand why it's such a scary thing for me. Now if only I knew how to completely get over it...

    Its interesting how this all works because now I'm understanding why I randomly remember things. Or pictures or hearing stories can bring back memories I didn't even know I had. I use chunking already and now I know why it actually helps.

    Also, between 4 and 7 distinct bits of information can only be held in STM so long as repetition is allowed. Interestingly, if we distract the brain from doing repetition, the numbers are closer to around 3 bits.

    What exactly is your fixation on Bernice? You mention her nearly every episode! If you ask me, it seems to be an unhealthy obsession. Maybe you should go see a psychiatrist.

    Memory is extremely powerful - It can shape our identities and our lives. This crash course covers some psychological models of memory. It covers concepts such as rehearsal, working memory, shallow processing, and deep processing. I often use deep processing, and I rarely use shallow processing.

  • @dadeskr
    @dadeskr 9 років тому

    I'm always amazed by people who have good long term memories, like they will start talking about something that happened years ago and I just have to take their word for it (maybe they are making it up...) my long term memory is dire, the only time I ever think about the past is when something triggers a memory and I am always suprised by them. I find it very hard to willingly recall stuff, I know that I did things but then I feel that my memories aren't so much memories but imaginings of how I presume it was. People say 'don't live in the past' and I don't because trying to do so makes my head hurt and confuses me. On the other hand I have very good short term memory.
