Memory and Personality

Introverted personality types will do better on number recollection Extroverts will recall words better.

Memory
People can categorize human memory according to the amount of time it is stored in the brain. There are three different categories of memory
Sensory Memory Short Term memory Long term memory

iconic memory (visual sensory memory) - less than one second echoic memory (auditory sensory memory) - less than four seconds A person's short term memory capacity, also called the memory span, is approximately 7 pieces ("plus or minus two"), or units of information. This could be numbers, letters, words, etc.

The rates of forgetting text book material.

Time From First Learning After 1 day After 7 days After 14 days After 21 days After 28 days After 63 days Percentage of Material Remembered 54% 35% 21% 18% 19% 17% Percentage of Material Forgotten 46% 65% 79% 82% 81% 83%

the curve of forgetting

The well known learning curve shows that in five minutes, much of the information we have taken in is lost. After an hour - two thirds of it is lost.

And after a day has passed - 90 % of it is lost.

a specific technique that works best:

Step number 1 take in formation. Step number 2 about five minutes later, undisturbed, go over the main points of what you are trying to remember. That should only take you a minute or two. Step number 3 an hour later, do the same thing. Step number 4 three hours later, do the same thing. Just go back over the information a minute or two. Step number 5 six hours later, do the same thing. Then that night before you go to sleep, review the material one last time. Step number 6 repeat that three times a day for the second and third days. Now you have that information for the long term.

Go through the list of items

1. Match box 2. Candle 3. Bulb 4. Edison 5. House 6. Car 7. Key 8. Screw driver 9. Television 10. Water 11. telephone 12. 6349 13. Ravi 14. Cat 15. Smile.

Think a story like this :

With a match box you can light a candle and the candle will give light. Nowadays we use bulb for getting light. Thomas Alwa Edison invented bulb. One day he went to his house in his car. When he was going to unlock the door with his key, he couldnt open it and so he opened the door with a screw driver. When he entered he found the television running and the water was flowing in the kitchen. He was afraid and he immediately telephoned to 6349, the local police. Ravi, the police officer came to his house and he found that Ramas Cat is the reason for the mess and both had a hearty smile.

Introverts - extroverts

Introverts are better time managers

Extroverts are poor time managers

Thinking about a problem or issue takes less time than talking about it.

They use up their own time as well as that of others

Sensors - Intuitives
Sensors perceive a minute as sixty seconds Intuitives perceive time as what you make out of it

Thinkers - feelers
Thinkers schedule their time based on the days priorities, regardless of the nature of the tasks. 9 to 5 schedule does not suit a thinker Feelers set up their schedules according to the people with whom they will interact throughout the day Avoid conflict, putting off unpleasant meetings

Judgers / perceivers
Judgers do their home work on time, their projects done on schedule. Time conscious They are the people who are slave to their clocks To do lists, day planners etc can certainly help Perceivers will be constantly late. They dont have time to get it right. They only have time to do it over. Easy going and unpredictable. Need to structure things and they may use all tools or use nothing

A one-day session wont do it.

Unlearn old habits
