Strong research evidence supporting - The Encoding, Capacity and Duration of the LTM and STM are different.

(I) Vaild explanation of STM & LTM. (C) Stronge reasearch evidence showing they are separate and unitary. (E)Jacobs-capacity-STM 7(-/+2) whereas LTM unlimited. Peterson & Peterson-duration-STM 6-30s where as LTM up to a life time. Braddeley encoding

Strong research evidence supporting - The serial position Curve ( Glanzer and Cunitz, 1966)

(I)Vaild explaination of STM & LTM. (C)stronge evidence taht they are separate and unitary. (E) Found Info at the beginning of a presentation remmeber- LTM(Primacy effect) Info at the end STM (recency effect) Middle info is forgotten.

2 of 6

Primacy Effect,

LTM- Information at the beginning of the presentation has had time to pass into the LTM. It is recalled from this store.

3 of 6

Recency Effect.

STM- Information at the end of a presentation has not had time to pass into the LTM. However, it is interpreted that these words are recalled form STM. As still in the capacity and duration of STM.

4 of 6

Brain Damaged Patients (KF)

Motor Bike accidnet- LTM was normal- STM limited to the capacity of 2-3 items. supports model as it shows the the store are separate... Possible to damage one store without affecting the other.

5 of 6

Strong research evidence supporting. Shallice and Warringtion (Brain Damaged Patient- KF)

(I) valid explanation of both stores (C) from brain damaged patients showing stores are separate but unitary. (E) found reduced STM to 2/3 items LTM undamaged- can damage one without affecting the other.
