Q

how does stuff leave the STM ?

A

output

17
Q

who came up with the multistore model of memory ?

A

Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968)

18
Q

who provided support for LTM and STM being diffrent?

A

Baddelly (1966)

19
Q

describe Baddelly study ?

A

he gave participants 1 of 4 lists too remember and found acoustically similar words were harder to recall immediately and semantically similar words were harder to recall after 20 minutes

20
Q

what did Baddelly study show ?

A

acoustic occurs in the STM and semantic confusion occurs in the LTM

21
Q

what is a counterpoint tot Baddelly study ?

A

artificial stimuli . In real life we remember usefull things (e.g.,people names , faces , places ect) .But many MSM studies use artificial stimuli like lists and numbers.

22
Q

expand on the point of their is more then one type of STM , which is not shown in the MSM ?

A

Shallice and Warrington (1970 ) had a patient called KF .KF STM for digiits was very poor when they read them out to him but his recall was much better when he could read the digits himself .THis suggests their is one STM for visual and one for auditory
