53
Q

54
Q

What tasks are used to study the idea that there are separate stores within the STM?

A

Dual Task Studies

55
Q

A

2 tasks simultaneously

56
Q

MCQ1

A

C & D

57
Q

AO3 - Research to support the WMM was conducted by Shallice and Warrington on patient KF. What happened to Patient KF?

A

He suffered with Amnesia

58
Q

AO3 - RTS the working memory model was conducted by Shallice and Warrington. What did they find?

A

KF’s recall in STM for digits was very poor when the digits were read aloud to him, but recall was much better when KF could visually see the digits himself.

59
Q

AO3 - How does KF’s case study research support the WMM?

A

It shows that there must be different systems within the STM, one to process visual information and one to process auditory information, with the PL being damaged but the VSS intact.

60
Q

AO3 - Counter argument: Why might KF’s case study research to support be criticised? And why?

A

Low population validity: case study of only one person with unusual illness which means the findings are difficult to generalise beyond KF to the wider population, as their memory may operate differently.

61
Q

AO3 - RTS WMM through dual task performance was studied by Baddeley, how do his findings support WMM?

A

It shows that there are separate slave systems, each with a limited capacity that will get overloaded by competing tasks, supporting the WMM as an explanation of how the STM works.

62
Q

AO3 - RTS WMM through dual task performance was studied by Baddeley. What did he find?

A

He found that participants had more difficulty when performing two visual tasks compared to when they completed a visual task alongside a verbal task.

63
Q

AO3 - Why might other psychologists argue more work needs to be done into understanding the WMM?

A

There is a lack of clarity over the role of the CE. The CE is said to be a single component of attention but some psychologists believe that it may have several components to it.

64
Q

AO3 - RTS the working memory model comes from dual task performance. What tasks did Baddeley et al set up?

A

He gave participants two visual tasks to complete at the same time, followed by one visual and one verbal task to complete at the same time.
