Memory Speaking

Memory involves three main processes: encoding, storage, and retrieval. Encoding involves acquiring and processing information, storage preserves information over time, and retrieval involves recalling stored information. Human memory allows for preserving and recovering past experiences, though it is imperfect and prone to forgetting or misremembering. Memory problems range from minor issues like forgetting keys to major diseases like Alzheimer's that impair quality of life. The study of human memory has been a topic of interest for thousands of years in science and philosophy and remains a major topic in cognitive psychology.

Memory refers to the processes that are used to acquire, store, retain, and later

retrieve information. There are three major processes involved in memory: encoding,
storage, and retrieval.
Human memory involves the ability to both preserve and recover information we
have learned or experienced. As we all know, however, this is not a flawless process.
Sometimes we forget or misremember things. Sometimes things are not properly
encoded in memory in the first place.
Memory problems can range from minor annoyances like forgetting where you left
your car keys to major diseases, like Alzheimer's and other kinds of dementia, that
affect the quality of life and the ability to function.
The study of human memory has been a subject of science and philosophy for
thousands of years and has become one of the major topics of interest
within cognitive psychology.

МОЙ ОПЫТ
As for me, i remember mostly all the information witch is important for me.
Sometimes i cannot understand how is working my own memory… for example i
remember the car number my father rented in Sochi in 2013 or i remember how a
completely random girl looked like at the airport

And after such cases, I was very interested in how memories are formed
So, In order to form new memories, information must be changed into a usable form,
which occurs through the process known as encoding. Once the information has been
successfully encoded, it must be stored in memory for later use.
It could be mind maps, checklists, гайдс энд соу он
Much of this stored memory lies outside of our awareness most of the time, except
when we actually need to use it. The retrieval process allows us to bring stored
memories into conscious awareness.

TIPS
No matter how great your memory is, there are probably a few things you can do to
make it even better. Fortunately, cognitive psychologists have discovered a number
of techniques that can help improve memory:

Jot it down. The act of writing with a pen and paper helps implant the memory into
your brain—and can also serve as a reminder or reference later on.1
Attach meaning to it. You can remember something more easily if you attach
meaning to it. For instance, if you associate a person you just meet with someone you
already know, you may be able to remember their name easier.
Repeat it. Repetition helps the memory become encoded beyond your short-term
memory.
Group it. Information that is categorized becomes easier to remember and recall. For
example, consider the following group of words: Desk, apple, bookshelf, red, plum,
table, green, pineapple, purple, chair, peach, yellow. Spend a few seconds reading
them, then look away and try to recall and list these words. How did you group the
words when you listed them? Most people will list using three different categories:
color, furniture, and fruit.

In addition to these techniques, keeping your brain healthy by exercising regularly,


maintaining social connections, managing stress, and performing challenging
activities (like doing crossword puzzles or playing an instrument) have been proven
to help boost memory. I

Human memory is a complex process that researchers are still trying to better
understand. Our memories make us who we are, yet the process is not perfect. While
we are capable of remembering an astonishing amount of information, we are also
susceptible to mistakes and errors.
