question Steven was thinking about karaoke e that he saw
- 00:19
the previous night He remembered the first singer saying dream
- 00:23
on and that the second singer saying yellow brick road
- 00:27
he could not remember the third singer song what's the
- 00:30
issue and here are potential answers Hey all right well
- 00:37
even if steven can't remember the hundreds of embarrassing videos
- 00:40
his buddies took throughout the night would probably help him
- 00:43
out but since we don't have access to those well
- 00:45
let's try and figure out the real reason for steven's
- 00:47
inability to recall the song let's start with a is
- 00:50
it a state dependent memory Not quite If steven had
- 00:54
for gotten all of the songs sung that night but
- 00:56
then suddenly recalled them the next time he had mozzarella
- 00:59
sticks which you just happen to pig out on that
- 01:02
night well that would be a state dependent memory This
- 01:04
is because state dependent memory refers to the way in
- 01:06
which were better able to recall memories when we're in
- 01:09
the same state we were in when we first learned
- 01:11
or experienced them But it's not so this isn't it
- 01:14
be recall simply refers to the act of retrieving information
- 01:18
from the past while see recognition describes the feeling of
- 01:22
familiarity we have when we encounter something we've previously experienced
- 01:26
D suppression is the act of stopping yourself from thinking
- 01:30
or feeling something you know like stopping yourself from thinking
- 01:34
about choosing a seven minute power Ballad as your karaoke
- 01:37
song All right all related to the question but none
- 01:40
that really fits the bill Now Retro active interference is
- 01:44
when new information we learned interacts with older information making
- 01:48
it harder to recall the earlier stuff It's like If
- 01:51
someone gives you a phone number to memorize well you
- 01:53
might just forget a much older number because of it
- 01:56
But really you should have your mom's number saved on
- 01:58
your phone by now from our people however what we're
- 02:00
looking for his e proactive interference This is when it's
- 02:04
difficult to remember newer information like a song number three
- 02:08
because old information songs one and two are in the
- 02:11
way So it looks like is the correct answer Now
- 02:14
we hope you've got seven minutes because we got a 00:02:17.24 --> [endTime] power ballad to sing and i and when No
