- Multi store model of Memory
- Case study of Clive Wearing
- FOR supports multi store model of the unitary stores
- After his accident he was unable to recall his long term memoried but his short term memory appeared to be intact
- Provides evidence for the existence of seperate and unitary stores
- After his accident he was unable to recall his long term memoried but his short term memory appeared to be intact
- AGAINST the multi store model
- Clive was able to remember some oh his LTM's. He was able to remeber who his wife was and how to play the piano
- Provides evidence to suggest that the stores of memory may not be so unitary after all but that instead we have more than one store for LTM
- Fails to explain memory recall that has not been elaboratively rehearsed. i.e episodic or emotional memories.
- Was an amnesia patient so is too specific. Unable to generalize and not representative of the wider population

- Glanzer and Cunitz 1966
- conducted an experiment known as the serial position effect.
- Laboratory conditions
- Participants were presented with a list of 15 words. They were then asked to recall the words
- PRIMACY AND RECENCY EFFECT
- Research was influential because it the first attempt to try and record memory.
- Stimulated other researches
- conducted an experiment known as the serial position effect.
- Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1971
- makes a distinction between the seperate stored of sensory, STM and LTM.
- The memory race is processed very quickly and is only transferred to the STM if paid ATTENTION to. MAINTENANCE REHEARSAL
- This is a temporary store of limited duration with a limited storage capacity (7+/-2 items)
- Some memories are transfered into the LTM if ELABORATIVELY REHEARSED!!!
- The LTM is a store with potentially unlimited capacity and duration that may be life long.

- Environmental stimuli are captured by SENSORY MEMORY
- Memories from the LTM can be retrieved and bought into the STM where they can be accesed

- Reductionist as it doesnt take into account emotional memories or flash bulb memories
