1. In McClellands theory of complementary learning systems, what is a feature of hippocampal learning?

  • Slowly binding together elements of an episode to prevent interference when new material is learned. Similar features shared by multiple experiences are strongly encoded
  • Quickly binding together elements of an episode to prevent interference when new material is learned. Similar features shared by multiple experiences are strongly encoded
  • Quickly binding together elements of an episode using few neurons to allow for seperability of memories
