- 1DurationRefers to how long information is stored before it is no longer available
- 2SecondsThe duration of STM is measured in...
- 3Potentially unlimitedDuration of LTM
- 4Bahrick et alYearbook photos, recall 70% accurate after 48 years (LTM)
- 5Peterson & PetersonConsonant syllables (e.g. WRT 303), only 2% remembered when interval was 18 secs (STM)
- 6Marsh et alDuration of recall in STM may only be 2 secs if there is no expectation of recall (evaluation)
- 7CapacityRefers to how much information can be stored
- 87 chunksCapacity of STM =
- 9Potentially unlimitedCapacity of LTM=
- 10Miller7 +/- 2 items & items are remembered more successfully when chunked
- 11SimonThe size of the chunk matters
- 12CowanCapacity of STM is 4 rather than 7 chunks (evaluation)
- 13EncodingRefers to how information is changed so that it can be stored
- 14AcousticallyInformation in STM is encoded...
- 15SemanticallyInformation in LTM is encoded...
- 16BaddeleyAcoustic similarity decreases STM recall, semantic similarity decreases LTM recall
