Strengths and Limitations of the Multi-Store Model

Advantages

  • SPERLING - duration of sensory store is limited
  • GLANZER AND CUNITZ - serial position effect (primary and recency effect)
  • BEARDSLEY - prefrontal cortex active during STM task
  • SQUIRE ET AL - hippocampus active when LTM is engaged
  • SCOVILLE AND MILNER - patient HM: could not form new LTM

Disadvantages

  • Oversimplified
  • SHALLICE AND WARRINGTON - patient KF: could remember visual information but not verbal information in STM
  • SCHACHTER ET AL - there are four LTM stores
  • SPIERS - LTM is not a unitary store
  • CRAIK AND LOCKHART - processing is more important than maintenance rehearsal
  • LOGIE - STM relies on LTM, not completely separate store
  • RUCHKIN ET AL - STM is part of LTM which is activated at any given time
