Question: There are distinct levels of forgetting and remembering. The first instances show familiarity; although the individual looks familiar and you may recall his name, you are unable to recall any specifics about your interactions with him (Goldstein,2019). Because familiarity is unrelated to the conditions surrounding knowledge acquisition, it is connected to semantic memory. I feel like this makes it easier for people to associate personal memories since it is personal or familiar to people associate with certain memories. Rereading causes the material to become familiar, so when you encounter it a second or third time, there is a tendency to interpret this familiarity as indicating that you know the material (Goldstein, 2019). As the old saying goes," practice makes perfect." Eventually, the repetition of doing something will make you faster and more precise at doing it. There are studies that show that music therapy may have some effects on people suffering from Alzheimer's disease. The results found in the articles demonstrated that musical intervention may be effective in the treatment of patients with Alzheimer's disease (Moreira & Others, 2018). Proving that familiarity does work with people of cognitive decline, with the help of episodic memory and semantic memory.
