Question

Answer 1

Explanation:

Cleary has also studied the phenomenon known as "tip of the tongue" -- that sensation when a word is just out of reach of recall. Both tip of the tongue and déjà vu are examples of what researchers call "metamemory" phenomena. They reflect a degree of subjective awareness of our own memories.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Memory Conceptualized in Terms of Types, Stages, and Processes,” psychologists conceptualize memory in terms of types, in terms of stages, and in terms of processes. In this section we will consider the two types of memory, explicit memory and implicit memory, and then the three major memory stages: sensory, short-term, and long-term (Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968). Then, in the next section, we will consider the nature of long-term memory, with a particular emphasis on the cognitive techniques we can use to improve our memories. Our discussion will focus on the three processes that are central to long-term memory: encoding, storage, and retrieval.
