It has high reliability (can be replicated)

semantically

sensory register, short term memory, long term memory

The format in which information is stored in the memory

He wrote an article 7 4 -2 and concluded. The span of a median memory is seven, sometimes more sometimes less, and we chunk things together which is a strategy to remember.

If they were tested within 15 years, 90% accurate and after 48 years we called, dropped to about 70%

Declarative, explicit and time stamped collection of sorts, behaviours, objects, people and places

5/9 chunks (Jacobs digit, span research, found a mean of 7.3/Miller said we chunk memories in STM)

Means that information is stored in the forms of meaning of the experience

Unlimited

Baddeley and Hitch 1974

Acoustic

A slideshow of 10 words

To investigate the duration of the short-term memory, and provide empirical evidence of the multi store model

Bahrich et al 1975

Infinity

It’s stores a huge amount of information from our senses for a brief amount of time about half a second

Atinson and shiffrin 1968

Peterson and Peterson 1959

The longer the intervention delayed the less of the trigram was recalled. were able to recall 80% after 3 seconds, however, 18 seconds less than 10% recorded correctly.

to find out if the long-term memory encodes, acoustically or semantically

acoustically similar, semantically similar

supportive

even though can’t be criticised about artificial but sometimes we do try to memorise fairly pointless meaningless things, e.g. phone numbers

The length of time information can be held in the memory store

392 American ex high school students, 17 to 74

Conforming variables are not controlled e.g. participants may have looked at their yearbook photos and rehearse their memory over the years

echoic/iconic

Baddeley 1966

True

Your memory from events that happened in the past from anywhere between two minutes and 100 years ago, it is permanent memory store

free recall test

Visual cache - stores visual information. inner scribe - arrangement of objects in a field

To investigate the duration of the long-term memory

unsupportive

it is the memory store for each of the five senses, e.g. the iconic store for visual information on the echoic store for sound information. and each of the stores are coded differently, e.g. iconic visually echoic acoustically.

stimulus materials artificial, meaning the study lacked external validity

central executive, phonological loop, visio spatial sketchpad, episodic buffer

Processes incoming information and advocates roles to the slave systems,limited capacity

30 seconds

Semantic

72

They suggest that each store is different (unitary) and information is transferred from one store to another in a fixed linear sequence.

A constant syllable or trigram to remember and a three digit number

True

semantic memory, episodic memory, procedural memory

Half a second

Supportive

photo recognition test

has high external validity as real life memory was studied

Means that information is stored in the form of sounds

Tulving 1985

a model of the short term memory and the way that the short term memory is organised.

unlimited

Supportive

The amount of information that can be stored

doesn’t have good ecological validity (as recalling a list of words is quite artificial)

Your memory for immediate events, which disappear, if not rehearsed, is sometimes called working memory

8 trials

unsupportive

declarative, explicit and not time, stamped broad knowledge of shared facts

integrates visual verbal and spatial information to create time, stamped, episodic memories (links, working memory to long-term memory)

Non-declarative implicit and not time, stamped knowledge of skills and actions

codes audible information. phonological store - stores words you can hear. articulatory process- maintenance rehearsal 2 sec loop
