What is the Adaptive Information Processing Model
Taking information through schemas. The way information is processed. Information is taken in through senses and connected adaptively to memory networks so that storing and learning can occur.If brain processing is interrupted due to the massive influx of hormone and neurotransmitter, these unprocessed experiences are considered to be the basis of the symptoms and of many mental health problems. Once information process is interrupted the memory of the event becomes fragmented and the experience may become disconnected (a women raped 40 years ago triggered by having sex withe her partner, etc.)._
