Synopsis

Memory: Foundations and Applications covers key memory models, theories, and experiments while demonstrating how students can apply these concepts to their everyday lives to improve their own ability to learn and remember. Neuroscience research is integrated throughout each chapter to demonstrate our understanding of where memory processes occur and how researchers use data to shape memory theories. The new Fifth Edition includes research updates throughout, attention to individual, cross-linguistic, and cross-cultural differences, and support with how to assess evidence while minimizing personal bias to help students evaluate claims.
