- 1Baddeley researched which part of memory?Coding
- 2What did Baddeley find from his research?Information is coded semantically in long term memory

- 12Who researched duration in long term memory?Bahrick et al (Yearbook)

Recognition dropped to 70% after 48 years - 14One limitation of Peterson and Peterson?They used meaningless stimuli - remembering consonant syllables doesnt have any significance to real life
