- When someone wants to remember something they bring it back at an unconscious level.
- If you have "forgotten" something you might not have actually forgotten it you might not have registered the memory in the first place so you havent really "forgotten" it at all.
- At a time when someone has tried to remember something and they couldnt but later on have remembered what might of happened was that there was a type of mismatch in trying to retrieve the memory.
- As people get older memory tends to decrease.
- Once a memory is created it must be stored no matter how breifly.

This post made me realize that dreams are stored in your brain even if you think they leave your brain.It made ne realize this becasue while I was writing this i lost my train of thought then I reread your bullet point and realized how relevant it was.
ReplyDeleteYou made some good points here, such as the 3 ways to store a memory and how memory changes over age. I agree with them because I am researching a very similar (if no the same) topic and you foud some interesting information I have not found yet. I think because our projects are so close we could learn a lot from each others research.
