Describe the components of the human information processing system: include working memory, long term memory, sensory memory, and attention. Evaluate strategies that enhance memory: include mnemonics, rehearsal, and elaboration. Analyze theories of forgetting: include loss of access, interference, displacement, and decay. Explain the phenomena involved in problem solving and decision making include heuristics, algorithms, biases, expectancies, and mental set
