1. Damage to the hippocampal complex results in
a. Anterograde amnesia
b. Retrograde amnesia
c. Prosopagnosia
d. Both anterograde and retrograde amnesia
2. What is the difference between reproductive memory and reconstructive memory?
A: Reproductive memory is accurate production of material from memory, while reconstructive memory is the active process of filling in missing elements of a memory during recall, which frequently leads to errors.
B: Reproductive memory is the reproduction of events one has heard of, but not experienced, and assimilated into long-term memory, while reconstructive memory is the construction of memory around one instant snapshot in time.
C: Reproductive memory is the active process of filling in missing elements of a memory during recall, which frequently leads to errors, while reconstructive memory is accurate production of material from memory.
D: Reproductive memory is reproduced memory from a person in a vegetative, while reconstructive memory is memory reconstructed from degrading memory.
3. False memories are:
a. fabrications incorrectly claimed to have been witnessed

A: The conscious act of willfully not remembering trauma, postulated by Sigmund Freud.
B: The unconscious act, postulated by Sigmund Freud, of pushing unacceptable urges, desires, and/or memories from the conscious mind where they would create anxiety.

15. What is proactive and retroactive interference?
A: Proactive interference is the content of new memories being disrupted by previously existing ones, and retroactive interference is the disruption of old memories by newly-formed memories.
B: Proactive interference is the willful act of interfering with the process of short-term memories becoming long-term memories, and retroactive interference is the willful act of altering old memories after they are ingrained in long-term memory.
C: Proactive interference is the disruption of old memories by newly-formed memories, and retroactive interference is the content of new memories being disrupted by previously existing ones.
D: Proactive interference is the disruption of new memories by repression and/or reaction formation, and retroactive interference is the disruption of old memories by repression and/or reaction formation
