We’re kicking off Season 7 with a deep dive into learning and memory – this one’s for the nerds out there!
We cover:
- Four stages of memory: perceiving, encoding, retaining, and retrieving.
- What can affect perceiving and encoding; the ‘front end’ of memory.
- Different types of memory, including working memory, short term memory, long term memory, and different kinds of long-term memory.
- What can affect our longer-term memory.
- Learning and memory in neurodivergent brains.
- The impact of hormonal changes for women and AFAB folk on memory.
- Tips and strategies for supporting memory.
Here's the study (by Rassovsky & Alfassi, 2019) on ADHD, attention, and movement that we mentioned.
