| Abstract | A theory of memory is introduced, which seeks to respond to the shortcomings of existing theories based on metaphors. Memory is presented as a mechanism, a comparison process in which information held in some form of immediate storage (whether based on perception or previous cognition or both) is compared to previously stored long-term storage. Human memory is compared to filing systems, semantic organization, and computers. The proposed theory suggests that no memory, thought, or behavioral pattern is stored as a discrete entity, but exists only within a compendium of molecular fragments of basic schemata which are assembled, through a process of array association. According to this model, memories and concepts are generated through a dynamic process when they are needed. It is assumed that information remains in an array format and that it is always in neuronal form. The complex process of array association describes memories as being elicited from the interaction of an input array and a master memory array, resulting in a third product array. The master memory array is assumed to be the brain's cerebral cortex; other portions of the brain are relevant to memory only insofar as they facilitate or inhibit the cortex's basic processes.
