LOP VS MSM

LOP VS MSM

1. What is memory a consequence of?

   • Memory is a by-product of information processing
   • Consequence of attention and rehearsal

2. LOP

3. MSM

4. Is there any supporting evidence?

   • Craik and Tulving study- but lab exp. not ecologically valid
   • Glanzer and Cunitz, and Peterson and Peterson. But, lab exp. not ecologically valid

5. Is it a structural or a process model?

   • Process- looks at the 3 processes, doesn't look at storage
   • Both- Structure- 3 stores. Process- attention and rehearsal

6. How is information/memory stored?

   • Structurally, Phonetically and Semantically
   • SM= perceptually STM= acoustically LTM= semantically

7. What are the applications to real life?

   • Useful in school life for revision. Know things are better remembered when semantically processed
   • Not really relevant to real life, but know giving more attention and rehearsing more leads to better recall

8. Is there any contradictory evidence?

   • Reber et al- emotional content of words affected recall
   • Morris et al- found phonetically processed words were better remembered/best recalled
   • KF- showed STM isn't just one store- he couldn't remember acoustically processed words but could remember visual.
