Abstract

The paper delves into the intricate relationship between learning and memory from the lens of cognitive science. It explores how cognitive processes, neural mechanisms, and psychological factors collectively contribute to the acquisition, storage, and retrieval of information. The abstract discusses various theories and models that have emerged from cognitive science research, such as the working memory capacity model, the multi-store model of memory, and the cognitive load theory. It further examines the role of attention, motivation, and practice in shaping learning and memory outcomes. Additionally, the paper highlights the importance of neuroimaging techniques in understanding the brain's involvement in the learning and memory processes. By synthesizing these cognitive science perspectives, the abstract aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the complex interplay between learning and memory.
