Act-In theory / théorie Act-In
Synonyms: Activation-Integration theory
Synonymes : théorie Activation-Intégration
Group: Human, Psychology
Groupe : Homme, Psychologie
Definition: "Act-In is based on four main assumptions: (1) Memory traces reflect all the components of past experiences and, in particular, their sensory properties as captured by our sensory receptors, actions performed on the objects in the environment and the emotional and motivational states of individuals which, to a large extent, determine their actions. Memory traces are therefore distributed across multiple neuronal systems which code the multiple components of the experiences. (2) Knowledge is emergent and is the product of the coupling of the present experience with past experiences. (3) The brain is a categorisation system which develops by accumulating experiences and which, by default, produces categorical knowledge. (4) The emergence of specific knowledge (memories or episodic knowledge) requires simple mechanisms which occur during learning and during retrieval (i.e., interactive activation and integration)." (Versace et al., 2014, p. 282).
Définition : « Act-In repose sur quatre hypothèses principales : (1) Les traces mnésiques reflètent toutes les composantes des expériences passées et, en particulier, leurs propriétés sensorielles captées par nos récepteurs sensoriels, les actions effectuées sur les objets de l'environnement et les états émotionnels et motivationnels des individus qui, dans une large mesure, déterminent leurs actions. Les traces mnésiques sont donc distribuées à travers de multiples systèmes neuronaux qui codent les multiples composantes des expériences. (2) La connaissance est émergente et est le produit du couplage de l'expérience présente avec les expériences passées. (3) Le cerveau est un système de catégorisation qui se développe par accumulation d'expériences et qui, par défaut, produit des connaissances catégorielles. (4) L'émergence de connaissances spécifiques (souvenirs ou connaissances épisodiques) nécessite des mécanismes simples qui se produisent pendant l'apprentissage et pendant la récupération (c'est-à-dire l'activation et l'intégration interactives). » (Versace et al., 2014, p. 282).

bind cue decide model of episodic memory / modèle liage indice décision de la mémoire épisodique
Synonyms: BCDMEM model
Synonymes : modèle BCDMEM
Group: Human, Psychology
Groupe : Homme, Psychologie
Definition: "BCDMEM [bind cue decide model of episodic memory] assumes that word recognition is a context noise process that involves cuing with a word to retrieve the set of contexts in which that word has been encountered. Performance is determined primarily by the other contexts in which the word has appeared and the degree of overlap between the study context and the context that the participant reinstates at test." (Dennis & Humphreys, 2001, p. 452).
Définition : « Le modèle BCDMEM [bind cue decide model of episodic memory] part du principe que la reconnaissance de mots repose sur un processus de bruit contextuel qui consiste à partir d'un mot servant d'indice pour retrouver l'ensemble des contextes dans lesquels ce mot a été rencontré. La performance est principalement déterminée par les autres contextes dans lesquels le mot est apparu et le degré de chevauchement entre le contexte d'étude et le contexte que le participant rétablit au test. » (Dennis & Humphreys, 2001, p. 452).
