Modulation of Memory Storage Processes

  • Chapter
Memory: Interdisciplinary Approaches

Abstract

It seems most fitting that the first of a series of symposia commemorating G. Stanley Hall’s contribution to psychology is devoted to the topic of memory. Memory processes are central to all aspects of psychological functioning: Our consciousness and our actions are shaped by our experiences. And our experiences shape us only because of their lingering consequences, which we term, collectively, memory. Memory is, of course, not the sole determiner of our experience and behavior. But in bridging the past and the present, memory serves a central coordinating role. Thus, understanding of the nature and bases of memory is essential for understanding of the broad range of problems that interested G. Stanley Hall. An analysis of memory processes seems appropriate as a beginning.
