877015235storagethe retention of encoded information over time.2
877015236retrievalthe process of getting information out of memory storage.3
877015237sensory memorythe immediate, very brief recording of sensory information in the memory system.4

877015239long-term memorythe relatively permanent and limitless storehouse of the memory system. Includes knowledge, skills, and experiences.6
877015240working memorya newer understanding of short-term memory that focuses on conscious, active processing of incoming auditory and visual-spatial information, and of information retrieved from long-term memory.7
877015241parallel processingthe processing of many aspects of a problem simultaneously; the brain's natural mode of information processing for many functions, including vision. Contrasts with the step-by-step (serial) processing of most computers and of conscious problem solving.8
877015242automatic processingunconscious encoding of incidental information, such as space, time, and frequency, and of well-learned information, such as word meanings.9
877015243effortful processingencoding that requires attention and conscious effort.10
877015244rehearsalthe conscious repetition of information, either to maintain it in consciousness or to encode it for storage.11
877015245spacing effectthe tendency for distributed study or practice to yield better long-term retention than is achieved through massed study or practice.12

880164243amnesiathe loss of memory.24
880164244implicit memoryretention independent of conscious recollection. (Also called non-declarative or procedural memory.)25
880164245explicit memorymemory of facts and experiences that one can consciously know and "declare." (Also called declarative memory.)26
880164246hippocampusa neural center that is located in the limbic system; helps process explicit memories for storage.27
880164247recalla measure of memory in which the person must retrieve information learned earlier, as on a fill-in-the-blank test.28

880164249relearninga measure of memory that assesses the amount of time saved when learning material for a second time.30
880164250primingthe activation, often unconsciously, of certain associations, thus predisposing one's perception, memory, or response.31
880164251déjà vuthat eerie sense that "I've experienced this before." Cues from the current situation may subconsciously trigger retrieval of an earlier experience.32
880164252mood-congruent memorythe tendency to recall experiences that are consistent with one's current good or bad mood.33
880164253proactive interferencethe disruptive effect of prior learning on the recall of new information.34
880164254retroactive interferencethe disruptive effect of new learning on the recall of old information.35
880164255repressionin psychoanalytic theory, the basic defense mechanism that banishes anxiety-arousing thoughts, feelings, and memories from consciousness.36

880164257source amnesiaattributing to the wrong source an event we have experienced, heard about, read about, or imagined. (Also called source misattribution.) Source amnesia, along with the misinformation effect, is at the heart of many false memories.38

3136860375Carbohydrate LoadingA diet and exercise protocol used to attain maximum glycogen stores prior to an important competition.145
3136878780Classical Method to Carbohydrate Loading (Bergstrom)7 days prior to competition, exhaustive exercise is performed for 3 and a half days in combination with an extremely low carbohydrate diet. During this phase, known as the depletion stage, carbohydrate stores are severely depleted by exercise and remain low due to the lack of dietary carbohydrate. The depletion stage is followed by 3 and a half says of very light or no exercise and a high carbohydrate diet (~8g/kg/d). This phase is known as the repletion stage, supplies large quantities of carbohydrate to glycogen-starved muscles. In response the body "supercompinsates" and near maximum glycogen storage is achieved.146
3136930402Modified Method to Carbohydrate Loading (Sherman)This 6 day plan includes a 3-day depletion stage that consists of dietary carbohydrate intake of 5g/kg/d. It is sufficient enough to allow athletes to complete the required training during this stage -- 90 mins of hard training on the first day, followed by 2 days of hard training for 40 mins. The repletion stage calls for a carbohydrate intake of 10g/kg/d for 3 days and 2 days of 20 mins of exercise followed by a rest day.147
