Amended reading list. This has been adapted to further explore my areas of interest around memory. These will be taken out from Goldsmiths university library tomorrow morning (09 Nov) to look over before the presentation on Monday.

Reading to understand social psychology


Memory in the Real World- Gillian Cohen & Martin Conway

Reading to understand memory further. This was available in ebook form.


Deep learning : how the mind overrides experience / Stellan Ohlsson. 
153.13

Understanding the mind and its ability to change, take on new information, learn new skills and change between incompatible beliefs. This relates strongly to memory and how this formulates a mental state at any given point

Cognitive psychology: Mind and Brain
153 SMI
An overview of cognitive psychology which effects the way people think, perceive, remember and learn.

 A cognitive psychology of mass communication
RJC Harris 153 SMI
'With this fourth edition of A Cognitive Psychology of Mass Communication, author Richard Jackson Harris continues his examination of how our experiences with media affect the way we acquire knowledge about the world, and how this knowledge creates consequences for attitudes and behaviour. Presenting theories from psychology and communication along with reviews of the corresponding research, this text covers a wide variety of media and media issues, ranging from the commonly discussed topics--sex, violence, advertising--to less-studied topics, such as values, sports, and entertainment education'

This would be useful in understanding how media interventions are affected by and affect people.
