This document provides an overview of topics to be covered in a psychology class, including memory processes, storage and retrieval of information, and factors that influence memory such as encoding, rehearsal, interference, and context. Grading policies and classroom expectations are also outlined. Key memory concepts like the information processing model, short-term and long-term memory, encoding techniques, and types of forgetting are defined in brief sections.
