6. How is information lost in sensory memory?
- Retrieval failure (failure of neuron pathways)
- Decay (Lack of attention)
- Black out (lack of care)
- Displacement (failed organizing system)
7. What is the study that supports encoding in LTM?
- Baddeley: Acoustically Similar and dissimilar words

- 7 +- 2
- 20 +-2
11. What is case study is support for the multi-store model ?
- Genie who couldn't talk even though she was old enough
- H.M severe brain damage, can't remember new things but can remember past events
- Batista boys who's hormones only start late in life
- Czech twins who learnt to communicate with only themselves as a guide
12. How is information lost and stored ,respectively, in LTM?
- Displacement, Rehearsal
- Rehearsal, Interference/ retrieval failure
- Rehearsal, Interference
- Displacement, Recoding
13. Capacity of LTM
- Unlimited
- The size of your brain
- 50 Google terabytes
- 7 bytes
14. What are the factors affecting the duration of STM
- Semantically similar info, Similar pictures, Dissimilar words
- Maintenance rehearsal , Intention to recall, Amount of information
- LTM, Reading aloud, Rhythmic grouping, Pronunciation time
- Sensory memory, Muscle Reactions, Listening Time
15. What is the Study In support of Duration of STM?
- Bahrick et al : Yearbook photos
- Peterson and Peterson :Consonant Trigrams
- Baddeley: Acoustically Similar and dissimilar words
- Miller : Strings of numbers
16. What are the factors affecting STM capacity?
- Semantically similar info, Similar pictures, Dissimilar words
- Love, Feelings, Current senses, Dreams
- LTM, Reading aloud, Rhythmic grouping, Pronunciation time
- Sensory memory, Muscle Reactions, Listening Time
17. What is the duration of LTM?
- 2 hours
- 14 years

- 15-30 seconds
18. What is the Study In support of Capacity of STM?
- Miller : Strings of numbers
- Peterson and Peterson :Consonant Trigrams
- Baddeley: Acoustically Similar and dissimilar words
- Bahrick et al : Yearbook photos
19. What is a strength of the multi-store model?
- Regency effects and explains brain damage
- Working memory disagrees that STM is a limited capacity
- Reductionist as it doesn't take into account how people memorize things, placing only emphasis on amount
- Doesn't explain the processing of information, e.g turning words into sounds needs other memory joined

- Sensory
- Acoustic
- Semantic
- Lifetime
