- 6WHAT IS THE SENSORY STORE?THE PLACE THAT HOLDS RECIEVED FROM THE SENCESDOR A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME
CAPACITY- VERY LIMITED
DURATION- 1 SECOND - 7WHAT IS THE SHORT TERM STORE?PLACE THAT HOLDS INFORMATION FOR A LIMITED AMOUNT OF TIME
CAPACITY- 7 CHUNKS OF INFO
DURATION- LESS THAN A MINUTE - 8WHAT IS THE LONG TERM STORE?THE PLACE THAT HOLDS INFORMATION FOR A VERY LONG PERIOD OF TIME
CAPACITY- UNLIMITED
DURATION- UP TO A LIFE TIME - 9WHAT ARE THE TWO MAIN CASE STUDIES ON THE MULTI STORE?MURDOCK (1962)
PETERSON AND PETERSON (1959) - 10WHAT WAS PETERSON AND PETERSON'S(1959) METHODparticipants given sets of 3 letters, e.g; mtw, gsl- to remember. but were then asked to count backwards in threes out loud for different lengths of times to prevent rehearsal. then were asked to recall letters in correct order
- 11what were Peterson and Peterson's (1959) results?the results showed that participants had forgotten virtually all the info after 18 seconds
- 12Peterson and Peterson's conclusion?it was concluded that we cannot hold info in the short-term store unless we rehearse it
- 13what was Peterson and Peterson's aim?to see if rehearsal was necessary to hold info in the short-term store
- 14What was Murdock's (1962) aim?to provide evidence for the multi-store explanation of memory
- 15what did Murdock do?gave participants a list of words to learn one at a time, for two seconds per word, and then recall the words in any order
- 16What were Murdocks (1962) resultsthe words at the end of the list were recalled first. (recency effect). words from beginning of list were recalled quite well (primacy effect), but the middle words were not recalled very well.
- 17what was Murdock's (1962) conclusion?this provides evidence for separate short-term and long-term stores. claimed that the recency effect is evidence that the last few words were still in the short-term store. the primacy effect is evidence that the first few words flowed into the long-term store
- 18Practical applications?knowing that capacity of short-term store is 7 chunks of info, we realise that car registration numbers don't exceed it, also it is the same with post codes
- 19WHAT IS THE RECENCY EFFECTinformation received later is recalled better than earlier information
- 20WHAT IS THE PRIMACY EFFECT?the first information received is recalled better than subsequent information
- 21Reconstructive memory - Bartlett said that memory is just a stored copy of facts. he said that we can change our memories to fit in with what we already know, even though we think we are remembering exactly what happened.reconstructive memory is altering our recollection of things so that they make more sense to us.
