Sounds
4
Q

A
5-9
5
Q

A
Less than 30 seconds
6
Q
What is the coding of LTM
A
Semantic
7
Q
What is the capacity of LTM
A
Unlimited
8
Q
What is the duration of LTM
A
Up to a lifetime
9
Q
Weakness of the multi-store model
A
Point: Too simple
Explanation: The model suggests that we only have one STM and LTM but research has shown that each of these stores has separate parts
Conclusion: Memory is more complex than the model peoposes
