With their two children tagging along behind them, Evan and Michelle walked through the castle gate into the main square of the Magic Kingdom at Disney World. That's when Michelle had a brief but intense déjà vu experience. "This is so strange," she said to Evan. "It's like I've experienced this moment before." What Michelle was not remembering was that she had experienced this moment before—in scenes on the Disney channel. This examples shows that a disruption in _____ is one way that many déjà vu experiences can be explained.A. Sensory memory
B. Flashbulb memory
C. Source memory
D. Prospective memory

Answer 1

Answer: C)Source memory

Explanation:

Source memory is the memory that is used for remembering the origin of the information that is learned. This memory is raised in mind due to factors like place, environment ,time,climate etc. which is know as contextual information.

The case mentioned in the question about Michele and Evan defines that they are getting deja vu that they have adventured in Disney land before  but due to disturbance in source memory they are not able to recall the learned information's source e.g- when they have been here before .

Other options are incorrect because flashbulb memory is contains lifetime memory in .Sensory memory is a short period of time memory.Prospective memory is memory based on recalling the planned activities.

Thus, the correct option is option(C).

Answer 2

Answer:

C. Source memory      

Explanation:

                 The term "déjà vu" is a French word meaning 'already seen'. It means the person has a feeling that he or she has already seen that thing or experience that moment in the past as he or she is experiencing it in the present time.

                 By "déjà vu" , the person has already lived that moment earlier in his or her brain.

                Source memory means to recall the source of learned memories or information in our brain.

               When Michelle was entering through the main square of the Magic Kingdom at Disney World, there is a disruption in the Source memory that makes us feel that we have already felt the same thing earlier.

Hence the answer is --

C. Source memory
