The term “episodic memory” was

       introduced by Tulving to refer to what he

       considered a uniquely human capacity—

Line       the ability to recollect specific past events,

  (5)      to travel back into the past in one’s own

mind—as distinct from the capacity simply

to use information acquired through past

experiences.  Subsequently, Clayton et al.

developed criteria to test for episodic

(10)      memory in animals.  According to these

criteria, episodic memories are not of

individual bits of information; they involve

multiple components of a single event

“bound” together.  Clayton sought to

(15)      examine evidence of scrub jays’ accurate

memory of “what,” “where,” and “when”

information and their binding of this infor-

mation.  In the wild, these birds store food

for retrieval later during periods of food

(20)      scarcity.  Clayton’s experiment required

       jays to remember the type, location, and

       freshness of stored food based on a unique

learning event.  Crickets were stored in one

location and peanuts in another.  Jays

(25)      prefer crickets, but crickets degrade

more quickly.  Clayton’s birds switched

their preference from crickets to peanuts

once the food had been stored for a certain

length of time, showing that they retain

(30)      information about the what, the where,

and the when.  Such experiments cannot,

however, reveal whether the birds were

       reexperiencing the past when retrieving the

information.  Clayton acknowledged this by

using the term “episodic-like” memory.

Q9:

It can be inferred that the author of the passage and Clayton would both agree that

              

the food preferences of the scrub jays in Clayton’s experiment are difficult to explain

the presence of episodic memory cannot be inferred solely on the basis of observable behavior

Clayton’s experiment demonstrated that scrub jays do not reexperience the past but do exhibit episodic-like memory

Tulving substantially underestimated the ability of animals to bind different kinds of information

Clayton’s experiment had certain fundamental design flaws that make it difficult to draw any conclusions about scrub jay’s memories

我选c,答案是b，why？就要考试了，望牛牛指点

shellsnow

顶，这个题我的答案是c,而我选的是b，所以到底哪一个对，为什么？

b的原因：episodic memory” as distinct from the capacity simply

to use information acquired through past

experiences : so the observable behavior, just is aquiring the past experience. ( observing the past experience), is distingurish from the episodic memory. : 作者的观点

Subsequently, Clayton et al.

developed criteria to test for episodic

(10)      memory in animals

紧接着举例，说明这个例子也是支持这个观点的。同时例子指出这个鸟的preference 产生了变化所以把information bind together 了，而不是仅仅靠 obervation behavior,支持了前面的观点

所以b是对的

c定位到文章Such experiments cannot,

however, reveal whether the birds were

       reexperiencing the past when retrieving the

information.  Clayton acknowledged this by

using the term “episodic-like” memory.：cannot reveal whether the birds....说明他不确定是不是reexperiencing了，没说这些鸟do not reexperience the past 。

这个地方是怎么把observable behavior等价成aquiring the past experience的？我倒觉得文章没有谈到observable behavior阿。。。
