script-based memory models

Script-based memory models describe how people organize their knowledge of typical events and actions into structured frameworks called "scripts." These scripts are like mental blueprints for common activities (e.g., dining at a restaurant), outlining the usual sequence of steps and expectations. They help us quickly understand, predict, and remember event details by providing context and identifying missing information based on familiar patterns. Essentially, scripts enable us to process everyday experiences efficiently by framing them within familiar, organized sequences of actions.
