Questão 14
Questão
What are strengths of the multi-store model?
Responda
-
The model can account for primacy & recency effects.
-
Applies to real life tasks: reading (phonological loop), problem solving (central executive), navigation (visual and spatial processing)
-
The model is influential as it has generated a lot of research into memory.
-
The model makes sense of a range of tasks - verbal reasoning, comprehension, reading, problem solving and visual and spatial processing.
-
The model is supported by studies of amnesiacs: For example the HM case study.
-
Supported by dual task studies.
-
Does not over emphasize the importance of rehearsal for STM retention
Questão 15
Questão
What are weaknesses of the multi-store model?
Responda
-
The model is oversimplified, both short-term and long-term memory are more complicated that previously thought.
-
There is little direct evidence for how the central executive works and what it does. The capacity of the central executive has never been measured.
-
The model suggests rehearsal helps to transfer information into LTM but this is not essential.
-
Does not explain changes in processing ability that occur as the result of practice or time.
-
The models main emphasis was on structure and tends to neglect the process elements of memory (e.g. it only focuses on attention and rehearsal).
Questão 16
Questão
Who invented the working memory model?
Responda
-
Baddeley and Hitch
-
Atkinson and Shiffrin
-
Milgram
Questão 17
Questão
What does the working memory model say?
Responda
-
Instead of all information going into one single store, there are different systems for different types of information.
-
Memory is made up of a series of stores.
Questão 18
Questão
What is the Central Executive?
Responda
-
Drives the whole system and allocates data to the subsystems. It also deals with cognitive tasks such as mental arithmetic and problem solving.
-
Part of working memory that deals with spoken and written material. It can be used to remember a phone number. It consists of two parts
-
Stores and processes information in a visual or spatial form.

Questão 20
Questão
What is the Visuo-Spatial Sketchpad?
Responda
-
Stores and processes information in a visual or spatial form, used for navigation.
-
Part of working memory that deals with spoken and written material. It can be used to remember a phone number. It consists of two parts
-
Drives the whole system and allocates data to the subsystems.
Questão 21
Questão
What is the phonological loop?
Questão 22
Questão
What was the aim of Baddeley and Hitch's study (1976)?
Responda
-
To investigate if participants can use different parts of working memory at the same time.
-
To investigate if people would obey authority and shock people to a harmful shock that would kill them.
-
To investigate if participants can use two parts of their brain at the same time.
Questão 23
Questão
Participants were asked to perform two tasks at the same time (dual task technique) - a digit span task which required them to repeat a list of numbers, and a verbal reasoning task which required them to answer true or false to various questions (e.g. B is followed by A?). Who conducted this experiment?
Responda
-
Baddeley and Hitch
-
Atkinson and Shiffrin
-
Harry Harlow
Questão 24
Questão
What is the episodic buffer?
Responda
-
Acts as a 'backup' store which communicates with both long term memory and the components of working memory.
-
Linked to speech perception Holds information in speech-based form (i.e. spoken words) for 1-2 seconds.
-
Linked to speech production. Used to rehearse and store verbal information from the phonological store.
