The compares human thinking to computer processing. It breaks down how we handle information through input, processing, and output. Adolescents experience faster processing, better abstract thinking, and improved planning skills as their brains develop.
Memory systems include sensory, working, and . Each type has unique characteristics and functions. Factors like attention, emotion, and sleep impact how well teens remember things. Understanding these processes can help students develop effective study strategies and boost academic success.

Information processing model draws parallels between human cognition and computer processing
stages unfold through input (sensory information), processing (manipulation and storage), and output (behavioral responses)
Adolescent cognitive development marked by increased enables quicker information handling
Enhanced capacity for complex thinking allows adolescents to grapple with abstract concepts (philosophy, hypothetical scenarios)
Improved boost planning abilities, decision-making skills, and problem-solving capabilities
Developmental changes in adolescence include myelination of neural pathways accelerating signal transmission
Long-term memory types: explicit (declarative) for conscious recall (historical dates) and implicit (procedural) for unconscious skills (riding a bicycle)
Information flows from sensory to working memory through attention and perception
Working to long-term memory transfer occurs via and processes
brings information from long-term to working memory for active use
Factors influencing adolescent memory
Encoding enhanced by focused attention, , and organization of information
