  1. Models of Memory Introduction to Cognitive Science Lecture 7: Memory/Sleep September 29, 2009

  2. Lecture Overview • The Modal Model (Atkinson & Shiffrin) • ACT* Model (Anderson) • Working Memory Model (Baddeley) • Change Blindness • The Hippocampus • Sleep & Memory

  3. MODELS OF MEMORY

  4. The Modal Model (Atkinson & Shiffrin) STIMULUS INPUT Sensory Memory e.g. Visual (iconic) Auditory (echoic), etc. Short-term Memory Some Control Processes: Rehearsal, Coding, Decisions, Retrieval Strategies RESPONSE OUTPUT RETRIEVAL ENCODING Long-term Memory Figure 5.3, p 134 in text

  5. ACT* Model: Adaptive Control of Thought (Anderson) External Environment Encoding Performance Storage Match Working Memory Retrieval Execution DeclarativeMemory Production Memory Figure 5.4, p 136 in text

  6. The Working Memory Model(Baddeley) Visuo-spatial Sketchpad Processing of Visual Information Executive Control System Supervises and controls processes Articulatory Loop Rehearsal and processing of auditory information Figure 5.5, p 138 in text

  7. Occurs when major changes to a visual scene go unnoticed by the observer. Testing the capacity of visual working memory:Change blindness

  8. Pay Attention….

  9. Change Blindness Differences between the two images can be detected only if we attend to one of the changing objects. This experiment demonstrates that we memorize only very little information from visual scenes. We typically use visual scenes as our “external memory” rather than filling our working memory with a large amount of scene information.

  10. The Hippocampus • Long-Term Memory • Learning • Navigation

  11. THE HIPPOCAMPUS = Dentate Gyrus, CA1-CA3, & Subiculum Marjor input from Entorhinal Cortex which is  other brain areas such as the Prefrontal Cortex Information Flow: Entorhinal Cortex  Dentate Gyrus CA3CA1 Subiculum

  12. Neurogenesis: birth of new neurons Highly active throughout development Also adult hippocampal neurogenesis (dentate gyrus)! What might this mean for learning and memory?

  13. Hippocampal Damage • Retrograde Amnesia: loss of memories before damage to the hippocampus • Anterograde Amnesia: inability to form new memories • Some causes: aging, Alzheimer’s disease, stress, temporal lobe epilepsy

  14. Patient H.M. After Surgery for Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Anterograde Amnesia: Intact working and procedural memory Could not commit to long-term SOME Retrograde Amnesia: Couldn’t remember 3–4 -day prior to surgery, + some events up > 11 years prior Able to commit new motor skills to long-term memory without actually remembering learning them Patient H.M. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/45580/9-10Spring-2004/NR/rdonlyres/Brain-and-Cognitive-Sciences/9-10Spring-2004/8AFEA93F-9C52-42E5-B967-211CCD2AA287/0/chp_9_10_hip_enc.jpg&imgrefurl=http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/45580/9-10Spring-2004/OcwWeb/Brain-and-Cognitive-Sciences/9-10Spring-2004/CourseHome/index.htm&usg=__baapQ1i44dpgT7ZDQuuBuOVnwnw=&h=307&w=350&sz=26&hl=en&start=2&um=1&tbnid=n5pajUYXebb7tM:&tbnh=105&tbnw=120&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dcoronal%2Bhippocampal%2Bhuman%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DG%26um%3D1

  15. Sleep & Memory Consolidation • Born & Marshall The contribution of sleep to hippocampus-dependent memory consolidation • MP Walker • Stickgold

  16. SLEEP: Overview Relaxed Wakefulness NREM Stage 1 • Sleep Can Be Divided Into: • NREM (Stages 1-4) • REM • Different stages are identified using EEG NREM Stage 2 NREM Stage 3, 4/Slow Wave Sleep Delta Waves REM NREM & REM cycle about every 90 minutes Early in the night: NREM 3 & 4 dominate Later in the night: Stage 2 and REM dominate Matthew P. Walker* and Robert Stickgold* Sleep-Dependent Learning and Memory Consolidation Neuron, Vol. 44, 121–133, Sept 30, 2004

  17. Neurobiology of Sleep Regulation • Many subcortical regions are involved: • Thalamus • Hypothalamus • Pons • Dreaming also involves: • Cortical: Prefrontal and Posterior (vision) • Subcortical: limbic (emotion) • Some key neurotransmitters: • Serotonin (5-HT) • Noradrenaline (NA) • Acetylcholine (Ach) 3, 679-693 (September 2002) Hobson & Pace-Schott

  18. Influence of sleep on a motor skill task (A-C) and a visual skill task (D-F) • Motor performance increase after sleep • Such performance increase is not strengthened during subsequent wake phase • Performance improve is strongly correlated with amount of stage 2 NREM sleep. • Increased level of visual performance after one night of sleep. • Performance iprovement with regular sleep periods (red) and no improvement after sleep deprivation during first night after training (green). • Improvement is correlated with amount of slow-wave sleep and REM sleep.
