MSM Description
- Information moves through 3 systems; Sensory
Memory, Short Term Memory and Long Term
Memory under the control of attention & rehearsal
- The distinctions among the 3
structures are made on the
basis of capicity duration and
encoding
- STM has a capacity of 7(+/-2)
items, a duration of 15 - 30 seconds
and its encoding is primarily
acoustic
- We recieve information from the
environment through our senses, which is
automatically stored briefly in a sensory
buffer
- Coding and rehearsal determine
the fate of this information.
- Rehearsal is seen as a key
process as it not only keeps
information in the STM but also
transfers it to the LTM
- Rehearsal is seen as a key
process as it not only keeps
information in the STM but also
transfers it to the LTM
- Material in the
sensory register that is
attended to is coded in
STM
- and information that is
sufficiently rehearsed is coded in
LTM
- and information that is
sufficiently rehearsed is coded in
LTM
- Then information is used as
an output
- LTM has infinite capacity, a
duration of a lifetime and its
encoding is primarily
semantic
