multi-store model Flashcards
1
Q
who studies the multi-store model
A
Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968)
2
Q
what is the sensory register?
A
ionic and echoic stores with brief duration and high capacity
3
Q
short term memory
A
limited capacity store of temporary duration - coded acoustically
4
Q
transfer from STM to LTM
A
maintenance rehearsal
5
Q
long term memory
A
a permanent memory store - coded semantically
6
Q
one strength of the multi store model
A
- supporting research showing STM and LTM are different
- Baddeley (1966) we mix up acoustically similar words when using STM and we mix up semantically similar words when using LTM
7
Q
one limitation of the multi store model
A
- evidence shows there is more than 1 STM store
- KF had amnesia - STM recall for digits was poor when he heard them but much better when he read them
