?
Who devised the multi store model?
Atkinson & Shiffrin 1968
1 of 10
what are the 3 components?
Sensory, STM & LTM
2 of 10
What is the duration of sensory memory?
0.5-2 seconds
3 of 10
How is sensory information lost?
by leaving it unattended
4 of 10
Duration of STM
30 seconds
5 of 10
capacity of STM
7 +/- 2
6 of 10
how is STM info lost?
due to decay/displacement
7 of 10
How does STM go to LTM?
rehearsal
8 of 10
positives of this model
high face validity- seems plausible at first look. 2- CSBDP supports multiple stores. 3-memory studies provides evidence to support distinction between STM and LTM.
9 of 10
negatives of this model
overly simplistic- reductionist. 2- idea of primary recency effect criticised- can be explained by levels of processing. 3- experiments used to test it tend to employ artificial tasks.
