Your activated but limited-capacity memory is called short-term memory.

Memory can also be studied in terms of stages that describe the amount of time that information is available to us.

Information is stored in sensory memory first, then in short-term memory, and finally in long-term memory. However, not all information makes it through all three stages; the majority is forgotten.

The majority of information that enters sensory memory is forgotten, but information that we focus our attention on with the intention of remembering it may enter short-term memory. Short-term memory (STM) is the temporary storage of small quantities of data for more than a few seconds but usually less than one minute.

A college instructor's schedule has her teaching an honors section of psychology. Halfway through the semester, she is told that
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The concept a social psychologist might use is the self-fulfilling prophecy.

Explanation:

A result of the Pygmalion effect, self-fulfilling prophecy explains that we are influenced by other people's expectations of us. If people believe we will succeed, we too begin to believe we will succeed. We then change our behavior, aligning it with the belief, making a self-fulfilling prophecy out of it.

Since the teacher was told she was teaching an honors section of psychology, and she believed it, she taught that class in a way that led it to the results an honors section would indeed present. The teacher was already biased - in a positive way - when she started teaching this class, which led her to see them in a favorable light. Such attitude ended up making the class perform better, as if it were truly an honors section.

A construção do conhecimento pode ser dividida em dois grandes eixos, isto é, o conhecimento produzido a partir do chamado senso
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Sources from which I proceeded to develop this way of thinking, They are both

historical and biographical sources and can be summarily described by the headings:

(1) Language, (2) the work of the skeptics from the beginnings of Western History,

(3) a key concept of Darwin’s theory of evolution and, (4) Cybernetics.

About thirty years ago, Heinz von Foerster noticed an inherent quality of the

nervous system (and almost everybody believes that human beings must be viewed as

nervous systems when one focuses on cognition): The signals that are sent from

sensory elements to the cortex are all the same. This had been discovered by Johannes

Müller around the middle of the last century, but von Foerster was, as far as I know,

the first to emphasize its epistemological implications.

He called this “undifferentiated coding”.1 What this means is that if a neuron in

the retina sends a “visual” signal to the cortex, this signal has exactly the same form as

the signals that come from the ears, from the nose, from fingers or toes, or any other

signal-generating part of the organism. There is no qualitative distinction between any

of these signals. They all vary in frequency and amplitude, but there is no qualitative

indication of what they are supposed to mean.

It was a very baffling observation. It has since been confirmed by Humberto

Maturana in the field of color vision, where he has shown that the receptors which are

supposed to sense red – or what physicists think of as the kind of light waves we call

red – send signals that are in no way different from the ones that sense green. If we

are able to distinguish them, the distinctions must be made in the cortex. Yet, they

cannot be made on the basis of simple qualitative differences, because there are no

such differences.2 It is therefore unwarranted to maintain that we distinguish things

because we receive “information” from what we usually call the outside world.

From the epistemological point of view, this is earth-shaking. Yet if you look

through the contemporary literature of psychology and especially the psychology of

perception, one finds practically no reference to it.
