Study of capacity of STM - ANSWER Miller (Immediate Digit Span Test) Jacobs Support Study of duration of STM - ANSWER Peterson and Peterson (Trigrams) 24 students given a consonant syllable and a three digit number ie. THX 512. They were asked to recall the consonant syllable after a retention interval of 3, 6 , 9, 12 or 15 seconds. During this interval they had to count backwards from their three digit number. Participants were 90% correct after 3 seconds, 20% correct after 9 and only 2% ...

Who developed the Multi-Store Model? Correct Answer Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968) What are the components of the MSM? Correct Answer - Sensory register - Short-term memory - Long-term memory What is the capacity, duration, and coding of the sensory register? Correct Answer - Capacity is large - Duration is milliseconds - Coding is sensory (Iconic, echoic, haptic) What is the capacity, duration, and coding of the short-term memory? Correct Answer - Capacity is 7+-2 items (Miller, 1956...

Multi-store model of memory strengths - Answer Pioneering, distinguished separate entities Research support from HM and KF to support distinct entities Research support from Baddeley encoding Multi-store model of memory weaknesses - Answer Computer model, reductionist Oversimplifies the STM, cannot explain dual tasking Fallible evidence, artificial and brain damage Capacity of the STM research strengths - Answer Lab study Standardised, easy to replicate Different ag...

central executive - acts as a filter to determine what information is received - limited capacity - baddeley found participants couldn't type letters and numbers on a keyboard whilst speaking random numbers - limited research phonological loop - stores verbal information - divided into: - acoustic store: holds words heard - articulatory process: holds words heard and repeats them visuo-spatial sketchpad - stores visual and spatial information - divided into: - visual cache: stores v...
