6. What area of inhibition might fMRI evidence be consistent with?
- Initial inhibition of the highly accessible but incorrect items
- Later inhibition of the less accessible but correct items
- Initial inhibition of the less accessible but correct items
- Later inhibition of the highly accessible but incorrect items
7. If Group B learned the second sequence without reactivating memory for the day 1 sequence, what was their performance like?
- They made more errors on the day 2 sequence than group A
- They made more errors on the day 1 sequence than group A
- They made less errors on the day 1 sequence than group A
- They made less errors on the day 2 sequence than group A
8. Where was there not reduced activity when retrieval practice progresses?
- Entorhinal cortex
- Anterior cingulate cortex
- Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
- Ventrolateral prefrontal cortex
9. The level of ________ in the prefrontal cortex correlated with the degree of RIF for the ___________ but _______ items
- Deactivation, non-practiced, unrelated
- Activation, practiced, related
- Deactivation, non-practiced, related
- Activation, practiced, unrelated
10. What is associative unlearning?
- Cue word becomes more strongly associated with the competitor word
- The non-studied but related item is inhibited so that responding is reduced
- The association between the cue and the target is weakened every time it is incorrectly recalled
- The non-practiced category items are recalled worse than those that received no practice
11. What is associative blocking?
- The non-practiced category items are recalled worse than those that received no practice
- Cue word becomes more strongly associated with the competitor word
- The non-studied but related item is inhibited so that responding is reduced
- The association between the cue and the target is weakened every time it is incorrectly recalled
12. If Group A learned the second sequence after reactivating the memory for the day 1 sequence, what was their performance like?
- They made significantly less errors on the day 2 sequence compared to group B
- They made significantly less errors on the day 1 sequence compared to group B
- They made significantly more errors on the day 1 sequence compared to group B
- They made significantly more errors on the day 2 sequence compared to group B
13. What memories are easier to change via reconsolidation?
- Weaker
- Stronger
- Longer
- Shorter
14. Which is the best explanation for retrieval induced forgetting?
- Asssociative blocking
- Retrieval practice paradigm
- Inhibition
- Associative unlearning
15. What is the self-perpetuating effect?
- Actively recalling the cued item rather than passively viewing that pairing
- The cue word repeatedly cues the competitor word because the association is strong
- Retrieval induced forgetting occurs for high category examples but less for low frequency examples
- The association between the cue and competitor being stronger than the association between the cue and the target
16. Inhibition of memory leading to RIF appears to be _________ __________
- Attention dependent
- Cue dependent
- Interference dependent
- Strength dependent
17. Taubenfeld et al found that in the ______ hippocampus in animals, protein synthesis is crucial for consolidation but not reconsolidation
- Rostral
- Caudal
- Dorsal
- Ventral
18. Which finding from Macrae and MacLeod (1999) best demonstrates the retrieval induced forgetting effect?
- Recall for non-retrieved related facts was 23%
- Recall for retrieved facts was 70%
- Recall for non-retrieved facts was 38%
- Recall for retrieved non-related facts was 41%
19. Which is not experimental criteria for reconsolidation?
- Treatment to alter reconsolidation administered
- Test for retention after window for reconsolidation has closed
- The reactivated memory is in a labile state capable of being changed
- Reactivation of a consolidated memory
