Question 5

Question
Features of the NICHD study
Answer
  • 100 people from an area

Question 9

Question

Answer
  • It was in a Syrain Kibbutz
  • It was in an Israeli Kibbutz
  • They tested the strange situation on children
  • Upon reunion they reacted the same to the metapelets as they did the mothers.
  • The infants found greater comfort with the mothers.
  • This showed secondary attachments are not made.

Question 10

Question

Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 11

Question
In Lorenz's study the geese followed him around because he had food.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 12

Question

Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 13

Question
What are the features of Pavlov's dogs?
Answer
  • 1ST: proved US (food) -> UR (salivation)
  • 1ST: rung a bell to make the dog bark.
  • 2ND: realised the dog started to salivate on association with the lab assistant.
  • 2ND: realised the dog started to salivate when it saw the food.
  • 3RD: used a bell as a CS to increase salivation (CR)
  • 3RD: used a bell as a CR to increase salivation CS

Question 14

Question
Pavlov's dogs was a study showing classical conditioning.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 15

Question
Van Ijzendoorn and Kroonenburg (1988) found what out from their meta-analysis of the strange situation?
Answer
  • Imposed etics
  • There are cross cultural differences
  • Attachment is formed universally.
  • Strange situation is the same everywhere
  • Japan is judged as a dependent country whereas Germany is the opposite.

Question 16

Question
What is the Primacy effect?
Answer
  • The first five words you process- rehearsed and transferred into LTM
  • The last 7 words you process - fresh into the STM

Question 17

Question
Why did the case study of Clive Wearing support the Multi- Store Memory model?
Answer
  • STM and LTM are separate
  • There is proof that STM is impaired but LTM is not- his wife
  • He was able to elaborate onto his STM and transfer into LTM
  • Interception meant he failed to retain his LTM

Question 18

Question
An evaluation of both WMM and MSMM is that "it is over-simplified".
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 19

Question
Tick the correct definitions of the components from Working Memory Model:
Answer
  • Central executive is the boss and directs the information as well as helping with problem solving
  • The phonological loop is the part of working memory that deals with spoken and written material o Phonological StoreHolds information in speech-based form (i.e. spoken words) for 1-2 seconds. o Articulatory control process is used to rehearse and store verbal information from the phonological store.
  • Visuo-Spatial Sketchpad stores and processes information in a visual or spatial form. It is used for navigation.
  • The Visuo-spatial sketchpad is used to process memories of numbers and letters.
  • The Central executive's only use is to store information
  • The episodic buffer helps us to understand information and is the only way that information can be held into the LTM
  • The episodic buffer is used as an extra storage cell.
  • Phonological loop is used only for auditory information and we can retain the information for up to 2 minutes.

Question 20

Question
In the SC Study only the phonological loop was damaged. This meant he could not do most of the learning activities but learning pairs of words.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 21

Question
What are methods of improving memory?
Answer
  • METHOD OF LOCI: associating familiar objects with certain pieces of information.
  • REHERSAL: Constantly repeating the information till it is stored in the LTM.
  • MIND MAP: Sub-headed information into smaller chunks. Pictures and colours also help with visual learning.
  • QUIZZES: Help to learn the information as you are aware of where you have gone wrong and where to improve.
  • CHUNKING: Memory is enhances- easier to maintain in STM. Can recall 5 words and 5 letters.

  • False

Answer
  • True
  • False

Question
Encoding features are:
Answer

Memon et al, Yarmey and Parka&Carranza were all concerned with age in eye witness testimony.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 28

Question
The own age bias can be explained through:
Answer
  • Similarly hypothesis- more contact with certain age group= more accurate memory for those individuals.
  • Differential experience hypothesis: More contact with certain age/ethnicity group= more accurate memory for those individuals.
  • The perceptual learning hypothesis: because we encounter members of our own age group regularly= better at processing their faces= better memory
  • The Perceptual learning hypothesis: because we perceive people in a certain way, those who are similar to us in terms of looks and personality= better memory for those certain people.
