{"Image DocumentName": "Long term memory - limitless", "Image ImageDescription": "Stores learning. Creation of pathways, synaptic links. Well learned = well trodden pathways. Chance of recall increases with number of links. Strength of learning increases with frequency of access. Routines, patterns of behaviour. Unlimited but\u2026. Forgetting/loss of skill. Change in strength of links. Weaken over time. Long term memory however is apparently limitless. Because the recovering information from memory relies on the strength of pathways we can forget, or stronger pathways can prevent us accessing less well trodden ones.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
