- memory, *****.
- 1. Sensory register 2. STM 3. LTM
- Studied in terms of encoding, capacity and duration.
- Capacity testes by immediate digit span
- Miller 1956, seven+-2
- Baddeley et al. Study of STM based on word length. We remember more short words than long words. - as mony words as we can artticulate in 2 seconds.
- Evaluation: - some people may be familiar with some of the words + lab study, doesnt reflect the everyday use of STM + short words may be simply easier to recall
- Capacity testes by immediate digit span
- Factors affecting the capacity of STM: influence of LTM, helps to memorise more effectively + reading aloud + rhythmic grouping + pronounciation time
- Factors affecting the duration: - deliberate recall + maintanance rehearsal + how much informatution is stored
- Study by Milner supporrts a clear distinction between STM and LTM, as recall works but learning new things doesn't.
- Multi store model
- Sensory memory - STM - LTM. (attention - rehersal)
- Evaluation: Shows a clear difference between LTM and STM - it is too simplistic to explain the entire memory system (fails to account other factors such as strategic remembering) - doesnt explain the processes, just focuses on the structure (NOT SEQUENTIAL, ITS INTERACTIVE)
- People store LTM without rehearsal.
- Multi store model
- Studied in terms of encoding, capacity and duration.
