According to the passage, which of the following would NOT be considered a transactive memory source?
Search engines have changed the way we use the Internet, putting vast sources of information just a few clicks away. But a recent study shows that websites—and the Internet—are changing much more than technology itself. They are changing the way our memories function. Dr. Wegner’s latest study, “Google Effects on Memory: Cognitive Consequences of Having Information at Our Fingertips,” shows that when people have access to search engines, they remember fewer facts and less information because they know they can rely on “search” as a readily available shortcut. Wegner believes the new findings show that the Internet has become part of a transactive memory source, a method by which our brains compartmentalize information. First hypothesized by Wegner in 1985, transactive memory exists in many forms, as when a husband relies on his wife to remember a relative’s birthday. “It is this whole network of memory where you don’t have to remember everything in the world yourself,” he says. “You just have to remember who knows it.” Now computers and technology as well are becoming virtual extensions of our memory.

Reminder apps that notify you of upcoming events

A photo album of your childhood

GPS devices that help you find your way with saved routes

A written list of your passwords for different websites

Cell phones with your contact list

교류 기억 원천으로 볼 수 없는 것은 “A photo album of your childhood”(어린 시절 사진첩)이다.
지문의 transactive memory는 정보를 직접 외우지 않고 “who knows it”(그것을 아는 존재)만 기억하는 방식이다. 사진첩은 필요한 정보를 찾기 위해 기억을 맡겨 둔 출처라기보다 과거의 기록에 가깝다.
“Reminder apps that notify you of upcoming events”: 일정 기억을 앱에 맡기는 것이다.
“GPS devices that help you find your way with saved routes”: 경로 기억을 기기에 맡기는 것이다.
“A written list of your passwords for different websites”: 비밀번호를 외우는 대신 목록에 맡기는 것이다.
“Cell phones with your contact list”: 연락처 기억을 휴대전화에 맡기는 것이다.
