MEMORY Flashcards
who made the mutli store model?
Atkinson and Shriffin
MSM
sensory register-STM-LTM
sensory register
all stimuli from environment enters. Several registers 5 senses eg. Iconic and Echoic. Less than half a second capacity.
short term memory coding
- coded acoustically
Long term memory
-Coded semantically.
Recall info from LTM through retrieval.
Case HM
Hippocampus removed from both sides of his brain and could now not form LTM but performed well on immediate memory span.
AO3 MSM
- research support
- more than one STM store
- elborate rehearsal
- HM
- more than one type of LTM
types if LTM
semantic, procedural and episodic
working memory model made by
Baddeley and Hitch
WMM
central executive, phonological loop, visuo-spatial sketchpad and episodic buffer
central executive
monitors incoming data and allocates the info to slave systems
STM capacity
7 +- 2 miller
STM duration
18 seconds peterson
LTM duration
lifetime Bahrick
baddeley study coding
different word lists acoustically similar and semantically similar
