Location of Explicit Long-term Memories

• Frontal Lobe

• Hippocampus

• Cerebellum

• Basal Ganglia

• Amygdala

Temporary holding place for memories, it send to other areas of the brain to be stored

• Frontal Lobe

• Hippocampus

• Cerebellum

• Basal Ganglia

• Amygdala

The "little brain" it is where sensory input is stored

• Frontal Lobe

• Hippocampus

• Cerebellum

• Basal Ganglia

• Amygdala

Deep brain structures involved in motor movement, facilitating formation of our procedural memories for skills

• Frontal Lobe

• Hippocampus

• Cerebellum

• Basal Ganglia

• Amygdala

Two lima-bean-sized neural clusters in the limbic system linked to emotion

• Frontal Lobe

• Hippocampus

• Cerebellum

• Basal Ganglia

• Amygdala

a clear, sustained long-term memory of an emotionally significant moment or event

• Flashbulb memory

• Serotonin

• LTP

• Priming

• State-dependent memory

Neurotransmitter released to make synapses more efficient and increase the number

• Flashbulb memory

• Serotonin

• LTP

• Priming

• State-dependent memory

An increase in a cell’s firing potential after brief, rapid stimulation, a neural basis for learning and memory

• Flashbulb memory

• Serotonin

• LTP

• Priming

• State-dependent memory

The Activation, often unconsciously, of associations in long-term implicit memory.

• Flashbulb memory

• Serotonin

• LTP

• Priming

• State-dependent memory

- What you learn in one physiological state may be more easily recalled when we are again in that state.
