Thank you We sneak in in his your shmoop du

00:05

jour brought to you by karaoke e it's the closest

00:08

you'll ever get to being britney spears unless you do

00:11

it our way when she has to show up at

00:13

the court hearing for the restraining order anyway Here's Our

00:16

question Steven was thinking about karaoke e that he saw

00:19

the previous night He remembered the first singer saying dream

00:23

on and that the second singer saying yellow brick road

00:27

he could not remember the third singer song what's the

00:30

issue and here are potential answers Hey all right well

00:37

even if steven can't remember the hundreds of embarrassing videos

00:40

his buddies took throughout the night would probably help him

00:43

out but since we don't have access to those well

00:45

let's try and figure out the real reason for steven's

00:47

inability to recall the song let's start with a is

00:50

it a state dependent memory Not quite If steven had

00:54

for gotten all of the songs sung that night but

00:56

then suddenly recalled them the next time he had mozzarella

00:59

sticks which you just happen to pig out on that

01:02

night well that would be a state dependent memory This

01:04

is because state dependent memory refers to the way in

01:06

which were better able to recall memories when we're in

01:09

the same state we were in when we first learned

01:11

or experienced them But it's not so this isn't it

01:14

be recall simply refers to the act of retrieving information

01:18

from the past while see recognition describes the feeling of

01:22

familiarity we have when we encounter something we've previously experienced

01:26

D suppression is the act of stopping yourself from thinking

01:30

or feeling something you know like stopping yourself from thinking

01:34

about choosing a seven minute power Ballad as your karaoke

01:37

song All right all related to the question but none

01:40

that really fits the bill Now Retro active interference is

01:44

when new information we learned interacts with older information making

01:48

it harder to recall the earlier stuff It's like If

01:51

someone gives you a phone number to memorize well you

01:53

might just forget a much older number because of it

01:56

But really you should have your mom's number saved on

01:58

your phone by now from our people however what we're

02:00

looking for his e proactive interference This is when it's

02:04

difficult to remember newer information like a song number three

02:08

because old information songs one and two are in the

02:11

way So it looks like is the correct answer Now

02:14

we hope you've got seven minutes because we got a 00:02:17.24 --> [endTime] power ballad to sing and i and when No
