About the episode
We’re kicking off Season 7 with a deep dive into learning and memory – this one’s for the nerds out there! We cover: Four stages of memory: perceiving, encoding, retaining, and retrieving. What can affect perceiving and encoding; the ‘front end’ of memory. Different types of memory, including working memory, short term memory, long term memory, and different kinds of long-term memory. What can affect our longer-term memory. Learning and memory in neurodivergent brains. The impact of hormonal changes for women and AFAB folk on memory. Tips and strategies for supporting memory. We've had some requests for the study on ADHD, attention, and movement that we mentioned. Here it is (by Rassovsky & Alfassi, 2019). A Google Scholar search will also yield plenty of additional studies around the benefits of movement for ADHDers. Got questions for us?? Come along to our LIVE Q&A event!
