A
He used a digit span technique. PPTS were given strings of unreleased digits that increased by one digit every time. The digit span was measured until they can no longer recall the digits.

Q
Miller STM Findings
A
Ppts could recall 5-9 (7+-2) items. More could be recalled if items were chunked.

Q
Research into Capacity of STM is praised for having high reliability
A
The research was carried in a controlled environment. Therefore, the research could be repeated in the same conditions to check for consistent results into the capacity of STM.
