Name 1 methodological issue of the studies into the coding capacity & duration of memory.
Lacks mundane realism (task)
Name 2 strengths of the methodology of the studies into coding capacity & duration of memory.
High control over EVs; High in Reliability
If the studies into C/C/D are high in reliability, what does this mean?
They can be repeated
If studies into C/C/D can be repeated, what can we check for?
Consistent findings/results
If a study lacks mundane realism, is this a criticism of the environment or task?
Task
Name 2 evaluation points used for Bahrick's study into duration of LTM
High in mundane realism; Low control over EVs
Who created the Multi-store model of Memory?
Atkinson & Shiffrin
Atkinson & Shiffrin created the MSM or WMM?
MSM
What kind of model is the MSM meaning organised?
Structural
What are the stores of memory according to the MSM?
Unitary
How does information flow in the MSM?
Linear way
At the start of the MSM, where do we get stimuli from?
The environment
Stimuli from the environment enters what store?
Sensory Register
What are the two main types of coding in the sensory register?
Iconic (visual); Echoic (sound)
For information to move from the sensory register to STM, what has to happen?
Pay attention
To extend the duration of STM, what is the technique?
Maintenance rehersal
How do we get information to move from the STM to LTM?
Prolonged Rehearsal
Keyterm for bringing information back from LTM to STM?
Retrieval
When information has been retrieved to the STM, what can happen?
Response/Remembering
The sensory register recieves?
Stimuli from the environment
Iconic & Echoic are the 2 main ways that the ……… code.
sensory register
Attention is needed to move information from?
Sensory register to STM
In which store can we only remember information from?
STM
Maintenance rehearsal is used to?
Extend duration of STM
Prolonged rehearsal is used to?
Move information from STM to LTM
Retrieval is the process of moving information from?
LTM to STM

Chunking
AO3: The case study of who supports the idea of unitary stores in memory?
Clive Wearing
AO3: Who conducted research to support STM & LTM are separate stores?
Baddeley
AO3: What is the criticism of using a case study such as Clive Wearing to support the idea of the MSM?
Low population validity
AO3: If a case study has low population validity, what is it hard to do?
Generalise the results to target population
AO3: Who had poor recall for digits read aloud to him but better recall when saw digits visually supporting the idea of STM & LTM being unitary?
Patient KF
AO3: Clive greets his wife as if it's the first time he's seen her in years despite her being in the room seconds before supports what idea of the MSM?
He can't transfer info from STM to LTM
