Retention of learned skills (riding a bike) or classically conditioned associations (fear of dogs) independent of conscious recollection (also called non-declarative memory) Enhanced memory after retrieving , rather than simply rereading information. The tendency to distribute study or practice to yield better long-term retention than is achieved through mass study and practice. Memory aids, especially those techniques that use vivid imagery and organizational devices. A momentary sensory memory of auditory stimuli; if attention is elsewhere, sounds and words can still be recalled within 3 to 4 seconds. Organizing items into familiar, manageable units; often occurs automatically. Encoding that requires attention and conscious effort. Encoding semantically, based on the meaning of the words; tends to yield best retntion. Encoding on a basic level, based on the structure or appearance of words. Retention of facts and experiences that we can consciously know and "declare" (also called declarative memories) A momentary sensory memory of visual stimuli; a photographic or picture image memory lasting no more than a few tenths of a second.
