Scientists study memory from many different perspectives - neurobiological, ethological, animal conditioning, cognitive, behavioural neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, and social and cultural. This text discusses 16 concepts that are critical to understanding memory.
Memory concepts / Yadin Dudai, Henry L. Roediger, III and Endel Tulving -- 1. Memory. It's all about representations / Yadin Dudai ; Why the engram is elusive / Morris Moscovitch ; Delineating the core / Daniel L. Schacter ; Integrative comments: Distinctions and dilemmas / Richard G.M. Morris -- Learning. A pre-theoretical concept / Robert A. Rescorla ; The need for a hybrid theory / Anthony Dickinson ; Challenges in the merging of levels / Elizabeth A. Phelps ; Integrative comments: Multiplicity of mechanisms / Steve Petersen -- 3.
