- Strengths of the multi-store model
- Lots of evidence to support concept of 3 seperate stores
- Glanzer and Cunitz
- Gave participants list of 20 words and asked them to recall as many as they could
- Participants remembered words at start of list (primary effect) and words at end (secondary effect)
- primary effect occurs because those words have been rehearsed the most and are now in LTM
- The secondary effect occurs because those words are still in STM when they are recalled
- Glanzer and Cunitz
- Gives an accurate account of memory in terms of structure and process
- Structures = Sensory, STM and LTM
- Processes = maintenance and elaborative rehearsal
- Has predictive and scientific validity
- can be tested and those expts. then repeated
- illustrating reliability
- Majority of the studies conducted were lab expts.
- highly controlled = no extraneous variables
- only IV was acting on the DV
- establishing cause and effect
- can be tested and those expts. then repeated
- Lots of evidence to support concept of 3 seperate stores
