Other questions in this quiz
2. One evaluation point of the WMM
- Accounts to much for musical memory
- It is a very influential model and provides a more satisfactory account of the complexity of STM compared with MSM as it is not just a passive storage system
- The majority of the research lacks ecological validity
- proves that psychology is too hard for any brain
3. Two difference between short-term and long-term memory in the Multi-store model?
- Both the LTM and STM encode and have the same capacity
- Capacity is unlimited in the LTM and information can last a lifetime but the STM has a duration of only 30 seconds and limited capacity of 7 +/- 2
- Capacity varies dependant on the person
- information in the STM lasts longer than information in the LTM
4. Limitation of the Working Memory model
- Does not account for musical memory because participants could listen to instrumental music without it impairing performance on other acoustic tasks
- Doesn't give a better account of the short-term memory
- The visuo-spacial sketchpad is to briefly explained
- Not much research has been carried out on the effectiveness of the WMM
5. One Strength of the Working Memory model
- The central executive is very well discussed with lots of supporting evidence
- The Phonological loop plays a key role in the development of reading, writing, and working memory capacity might be used as a measure of stability for certain jobs.
- Has lots of research to back us the evidence of the effectiveness of the model
- A plausible model
