Multi - Store Model Flashcards
the multi store model was developed by
atkinson and shiffrin
the msm was develpoed
in 1968
what goes into the sensory register?
all incoming stimuli
all incoming stimuli includes ….
the 5 senses
what is the sensory registers capacity like?
unlimited
what filters infomation from the sensory register through to the STM
attention, whatever you focus attention on will be filtered through to STM
what does STM stand for
short term memory
what does LTM stand for
long term memory
what filters infomation from STM into LTM
rehearsal
different types of rehearsal
maintenance and elaborate
3 different types of coding within the multi store model
acoustic, visual, semantic
capacity
- how much can it hold
duration
for how long can we remember this
what are the 3 types of coding
semantic, acoustic and visual
coding within the sensory registar would stay in what format
the same format
coding within the STM would stay mainly
in the acoustic format
coding within the LTM would stay mainly
the semantic format
maintenance rehearsal
going over the same infomation
elaborative rehearsal
going over the same infomation and building on the infomation
elaborative rehearsal is allegedly better for what
ensuring infomation goes into LTM
acoustic coding processes infomation in terms of
sound
visual coding processes infomation in terms of
what it looks like
semantic coding processes infomation in terms of
meaning
multistore model is a what for memory
storage model
controversial points to the sensory registar
is it really a store? why isnt it
duration of STM
0-18 seconds
duration of LTM
unlimited
duration of sensory registar
infomation only passes through
capacity for STM
7+-2
capacity for LTM
unlimited
