Q

How is memory recalled from LTM?

A

Transferred to STM through retrieval

17
Q

Evaluation - supporting research evidence

A

Baddeley - mix up acoustically similar words using STM
Mix up semantically similar words using LTM
STM and LTM are different

18
Q

Evaluation - more than one type of STM

A

Shallice and Warrington studied amnesiac KF
KF’s STM for digits was poor when read out loud, better when reading to himself
Visual and auditory STM

19
Q

Evaluation - more than one type of rehearsal

A

Craik and Watkins - type of rehearsal matters not amount of it
Maintenance rehearsal does not transfer info to LTM
Elaborative rehearsal needed for long term storage
Link info to existing knowledge or think about what it means

20
Q

Evaluation - artificial materials

A

Digits, letters, words
Consonant syllables no meaning
Doesn’t apply to real life

21
Q

Evaluation - more than one type of LTM

A

LTM is not unitary

Different types of LTM undermines model
