Ch 7 Concept Review

1 - Source memory: remembering how you know something, why you made particular note of it, who said it, what was going on at the time. Item memory: The memory itself.

2 - In source monitoring framework, people use heuristics to judge their source. If they choose a bad heuristic, may remember source incorrectly ("so vivid" or made an image -- could be a dream or real).

3 - Brain areas for source judgments? Prefrontal cortex for the memory of the thing and source, and the medial temporal lobe to bind the pieces together.

4 - Forward model -- schizophrenics may confuse inner voice with outer voice because they fail to recognize their own voice or own thought. Feedback from their actions may be garbled or misunderstood by the body.

5 - Mirror sign -- failure to recognize own face in the mirror, don't receive the familiarity signal you are expecting.
