Lord of the Silver Crow

hazy memory.

Yago didn't immediately conduct the experiment he wanted on Heertai.

Although there is also a reason why the probability line connection between the gatekeeper mask and the corresponding fragments of existence is too strong, the feasibility of completing the experiment is not high, and there is also the reason why he is becoming more and more addicted to the illusion of memory. The reason above the wonderful things.

While he was altering the memories of several writers, he discovered something.

A vague memory, it's quite easy to change it.

Perhaps this sentence sounds like nonsense, but Yago refers to only partially vague memory, and it is quite simple to change.

It doesn't even need Yago to use the ability of the spirit man to change the spirit mist by himself, just a little guidance can make these partially blurred memories clear and tangible.

This situation reminds Yago of a very famous folk science theory - the Mandela effect.

This is a psychological effect, referring to the general public. Many people's collective memory of history does not match the historical facts.

That is to say, there are many people who remember something different from the fact, and the memories of these misremembered people are all the same.

The same thing is wrong.

The creator of the Mandela Effect, combined with the scientific news of the year, interpreted this as parallel world travel, saying that a large number of people who misremembered are people from parallel worlds, and there are confusions due to changes in time and space, etc.

Of course Yago doesn't have much research on psychology and memory, and he is not an expert, but myths, legends, religion and psychology are too deeply involved, and psychology sounds like a high-level People who are a bit mysterious and interested in things will understand more or less, not to mention his research direction of mythology, religion and folklore.

For these things like memory, Yago has some superficial understanding.

Take the origin of the name Mandela Effect as an example——

The death of South African President Nelson Mandela, when many people heard the news of his death in 2013, they would be stunned to think—isn’t this person already dead?

In their memory, this person was already dead.

There are generally several explanations for the discrepancy between popular memory and historical fact.

1. Déjà vu, or memory hallucinations.

Cognition and memory are separate but related.

Memory itself is also divided into many types.

Unconscious memory, or situational memory, semantic memory, etc., is the memory of the plot and what happened.

These are things that a person registers when they experience or observe without consciously attempting to remember.

For example, a man was hit by a car and crushed his head, a man was killed with a pistol, etc.

These memories, often without a clear object, are an important part of experience.

However, if these memories are associated with emotions, they tend to be remembered more firmly and deeply.

When certain things happen, there are emotions such as sadness and anger, which will make this memory stronger.

Yago also had experience when using the ability of the spirit man and the ability of the gravekeeper, and the memories of Samuel and Oster have similar memories.

There are similar theories in the previous world.

These fuzzy unconscious memories are themselves fuzzy, and need to link the memories of other partitions to describe one thing.

Mechanical Recognition

This is the subdivision of conscious memory among the two memory types unconscious memory and conscious memory in Yago's impression.

Conscious memory is subdivided into mechanical memory and meaningful memory.

Mechanical memorization is often passive. According to different memory habits, memory is memorized in a certain order in a mechanical arrangement and repetition, such as various meaningless syllables, place names, personal names, historical years, etc.

These memories themselves also undertake the function of sorting and ensuring that memories do not produce confusion.

Compared with a structure similar to the mnemonic method of a book, in simple terms, mechanical memorization may be called a catalogue.

When a person recalls, the partitions of conscious memory will correspond to the memories of unconscious memory partitions.

However, as mentioned earlier, memory and cognition affect each other, are connected and independent of each other.

After all, memory needs to be obtained and classified through cognition, and cognition also needs to be judged through memory.

The occurrence of sense of déjà vu means that when the memory is connected, those vague memories of similar patterns in the unconscious memory affect the work of cognition and memory.

In some sources of déjà vu, those parts of unconscious memory are vague, but the structure is similar, and the recognizer will feel I seem to have experienced it but I am not sure about the specific time and place.

There is some sense of déjà vu, those parts of unconscious memory are clear, and can even correspond to specific mechanical memorization catalogs.

But the biggest problem is that people will remember wrongly, and their memory will not always be clear.

Mechanically memorizing another thing with the same or even a similar name, when it comes into contact with related things and finds out, some details are missing, leaving only those similar structures that cannot be used as distinguishing judgments.

And memory, or experience memory, has an automatically corrected substitution.

Because after a part of a certain memory has been blurred and disappeared due to time or various reasons, based on the function of self-repair, it will find similar things to fill in, and the information in the unconscious memory will be supplemented.

In this way, I'm sure I've experienced it, I'm sure when it happened or even something specific, but after a comparison, I found that I remembered it wrong, and I couldn't figure it out.

Emotional instability will also increase the probability of déjà vu.

Second, create memory, or confuse memory.

It’s more interesting. In his world, things that are popular in many fields are even rotten on the street. If there is nothing to do, he will take them out for a walk.

Schrodinger's cat

To be precise, it is similar to Schrödinger's cat. These memories are fuzzy, and he does not actually remember the development of this memory. However, due to the automatic repair mechanism of memory, when he is vague and uncertain, if he After receiving similar information from the outside world, it will quickly integrate this information into this fuzzy memory.

In this case, this memory itself does not exist, it does not exist, and it can even be said to be a newly created memory on the spot.

But repairing will make him think that this memory has long existed, instead of thinking that his own memory has just been written down and completed.

In these two cases, a lot of details are omitted, which can be simply expressed as wrong memory and don't remember at all.

There is still a lot to be developed for the ability of the soul sender.
