课程名称：理解记忆：通过电影解释记忆心理学 课程概述：欢迎来到《理解记忆》课程。有人曾说，记忆是迷人的，因为有时我们忘记想要记住的东西，有时我们记住想要忘记的事情，还有时我们记住了从未发生过或并不是那样发生的事件。我希望向你展示记忆的工作原理、为何有时记忆会失败以及我们可以做些什么来增强记忆。此课程基于我最近出版的书籍《记忆与电影：电影可以教会我们的记忆》（MIT出版社，2015），我将在此课程中介绍人类记忆的科学研究，聚焦一些广受欢迎的主题。为了帮助理解，我将利用众多电影片段来展示记忆的不同方面，用一种非技术性的方式来描述记忆，适合没有心理学基础的学生。我们中许多人喜欢看电影，因为电影提供了无与伦比的娱乐机会，尽管有趣的电影不一定总是科学准确的。但我相信，如果我们以有知识的眼光观看这些流行电影，我们可以从中学到很多关于记忆的东西。再次欢迎大家，我期待着向您展示电影可以教会我们关于记忆的知识。 讲师：约翰·西蒙，心理学名誉教授，卫斯理大学 课程大纲： 第一部分：记忆过程与记忆电影 人类记忆包含一系列系统，使我们能记住过去和想象未来。影片通过讲述人物故事，帮助我们理解记忆，展示他们的现在是如何受到过去的影响，以及通过观看这些故事，我们可能如何处理未来类似的情况。 第二部分：形成持久记忆 记忆的主要目的是促进未来思维。但为了有效地策划成功的未来行动，需要有效的学习和保持策略。有些策略在形成持久记忆方面非常有效，而另一些则效果不佳。 第三部分：自传记忆与生活故事 我们每个人都有根据个人经历构建的生活故事。这些自传记忆使我们独特。但在讲述我们的人生故事时，我们重构了个人叙事，类似于回忆录作者。这些记忆通常是准确的，但我们的记忆从不完美。 第四部分：理解失忆的现实 失忆常常在电影中被描绘为由于头部外伤导致，并通过再次受到撞击来治愈。在现实生活中，失忆可能是由于身体或情感创伤引起的，可能是暂时的或永久的，而如果有所恢复，绝不是因为再次受到头部撞击。 第五部分：老年时刻、遗忘与痴呆 随着年龄的增长，记忆可能会发生变化。有些变化是正常的，而另一些可能会预示着阿尔茨海默病或其他形式痴呆的开始。记忆丧失让人担忧，但有有效的方法可以帮助我们在老龄化过程中维持记忆功能。

Title:Memory Processes and Memory Movies
Description:Human memory involves a collection of systems that enable us to remember the past and imagine the future. Films can enhance our understanding of memory by telling us stories about people, illustrating how their present was shaped by their past and how, by watching their stories, we might navigate similar situations in our future.
Part: 2
Title:Making Long Lasting Memories
Description:Memory’s main purpose is to facilitate future thinking. But to plan successful future actions, effective strategies for learning and retention are needed. Some strategies are highly effective for producing long lasting memories, others are not.
Part: 3
Title:Autobiographical Memories and Life Stories
Description:Each of us has a life story based on our personal experiences. These autobiographical memories define us and make us unique. But in telling our life story, we have reconstructed a personal narrative, much like a memoir writer. These recollections are generally accurate, but our memories are never a perfect record of the past.
Part: 4
Title:Understanding the Reality of Amnesia
Description:Amnesia has often been portrayed in film as resulting from a bump on the head and cured by another head bonk. In real life, amnesia can follow physical or emotional trauma, it may be temporary or permanent, and if it resolves, it is never from another blow to the head.
Part: 5
Title:Senior Moments, Forgetfulness, and Dementia
Description:Changes in memory can occur as we get older. Some changes are normal, whereas others might signal the onset of Alzheimer’s disease or some other form of dementia. Memory loss is worrisome, but there are effective ways to help maintain memory function as we age.
Welcome to Understanding Memory. Someone once said that memory is fascinating because sometimes we forget what we want to remember, sometimes we remember what we want to forget, and sometimes we remember events that never happened or never happened the way we remember them. I want to show you how memory works, why it sometimes fails, and what we can do to enhance it. Based on my recent book – Memory and Movies: What Films Can Teach Us About Memory (MIT Press, 2015) – I will provide an introduction to the scientific study of human memory by focusing on a select group of topics that hold widespread appeal. To facilitate your understanding, I will use clips from numerous films to illustrate different aspects of memory – describing what has been learned about memory in a nontechnical way for people with no prior background in psychology. Many of us love watching movies because they offer an unparalleled opportunity for entertainment, even if entertaining films are not always scientifically accurate. Still, I believe that we can learn a lot about memory from popular films, if we watch them with an educated eye. Welcome once more. I am looking forward to showing you what movies can teach us about memory. John Seamon Professor of Psychology Emeritus Wesleyan University
