  1. 1What are some of the criticisms of the multistore model?
    1. AOveremphasis on structural aspects
    2. BNot enough emphasis on structural aspects
    3. CSystems are not unitary
    4. DThe STM and LTM systems aren't independent
    5. EImpairment of STM doesn't impair LTM
  2. 2Craik and Tulving (1975) found that recall was better for semantically processed stimuli than phonemically processed, and similarly, phonemically processed stimuli were better recalled better than visually processed stimuli. What could we say about effectiveness of encoding in regards to these results?
    1. ARetention is a function of the amount of processing at the time of encoding.
    2. BRehearsal is the most efficient way to store a memory.
    3. CThe simpler the processing the better the recall.
    4. DThe effect can be shown to be modulated by context and so having the same context will increase recall.
  3. 3Godden and Baddeley (1975. 1980) found poorer recall of words learned on land while underwater and vice versa and better recall when the list was learned and recalled on land. This effect was not found when using a recognition task rather than a recall task, why could these different results for recall vs recognition occurring?
    1. AThe effect of recognition is outweighing the effect of context mismatch.
    2. BThe words in the recognition set may have been easier than the recall set.
    3. CPeople with diving experience may have better recognition skills than recall which eliminates the effect.
    4. DTheir moods were the same for encoding and recall overriding the place contexts effect.
  4. 4In Kenealys' (1997) study, participants had a mood (happy/sad) induced and then given a list to remember. Participants were then induced later into (happy/sad) for a free recall task. Knowing what we do about context dependent recall, which results could we predict? (Select all that apply)
    1. AHappy at encoding had better recall when happy.
    2. BSad at encoding had better recall when happy.
    3. CSad at encoding had better recall when sad.
    4. DHappy at encoding had worse recall when sad
    5. ESad at encoding had worse recall when sad.
    6. FSad at encoding had better encoding when happy.
  5. 5Fragment completion, picture identification and word stem completion tests are examples of..
    1. AImplicit retrieval memory tests
    2. BIncidental encoding
    3. CCued recall
    4. DRecognition
    5. ESerial recall
  6. 6Which of the following memory tests did amnesics not perform worse than controls at?
    1. AFree recall
    2. BCued recall
    3. CRecognition
    4. DWord completion
  7. 7In Schacter, Church & Boltons' (1995) study, it was found that controls gained a boost in successful word identification when words previously listened to were heard again in the same voice, whereas amnesics did not get this effect. How could this be explained?
    1. AAmnesics aren't able to bind the context of the persons voice to the word.
    2. BAmnesics didn't remember the voice.
    3. CAmnesics have better semantic memory for words and worse memory for auditory characteristics such as peoples voices.
    4. DAmnesics were able to guess correctly roughly the same amount each trial but controls where able to recognise.
  8. 8Which of the following results gives support to the idea that amnesics are unable to bind context to memories?
    1. AKorsakoff's were unable to discriminate WHEN they had seen a particular picture compared to controls, but matched controls when determining whether or not they had ever seen a particular picture (Huppert & Piercy, 1976)
    2. BAmnesics perform better on implicit rather than explicit recall tasks (Graf, Squire & Mandler, 1984).
    3. CAnterograde amnesia prevents new memories from being transferred to long term memory.
    4. DAmnesics are able to learn new skills showing intact procedural memory.
