Distinguish the types of forgetting: anterograde amnesia, retrograde amnesia, encoding failure, retrieval failure, and interference (both retroactive and proactive).

umm:

Do you know each of the terms?

umm:

Looking up each of the terms may be useful, here's the first one. Anterograde amnesia: is a condition in which a person is unable to create new memories after an amnesia-inducing event

dgreer4:

Anterograde amnesia- loss of the ability to create new memories after the event that caused amnesia, leading to a partial or complete inability to recall the recent past, while long-term memories from before the event remain intact.

dgreer4:

Retrograde amnesia- a form of amnesia where someone is unable to recall events that occurred before the development of the amnesia.

dgreer4:

So basically I describe the terms and how they lead to memory loss?

umm:

Yes ma'am.

dgreer4:

Okay that's easy enough...... Thanks :D

umm:

No problem. Just remember to word them in your own words when you do it on the actual assignment or they'll strike it as plagiarism.

dgreer4:

I will, thanks. Have a great day!!!!!

umm:

You too.
