how was duration of LTM tested
Bahnck et al - 400 people aged 17-74, high school yearbook retention, their class, then free recall - name the student

the findings of Bahnck's study?
Participants who graduated around 15 years ago were 90% accurate on their class, 70% on free recall, others around 48 years out of graduation were 70% on class retention, 30% on free recall

why was the STM test of digit recall not ecologically valid?
Trying to remember constant syllables is not a realistic test of everyday memory functions where what we try to remember is meaningful
