How many memory stores does the multi-store model state there are?
Three
View source
According to the multi-store model, what three characteristics differentiate the memory stores?
Encoding
Capacity
Duration
View source
According to the multi-store model, how does information move between memory stores?
Through
attention
or
rehearsal
View source
Which memory store holds information from the senses for a short time?
Sensory memory
View source
What is the capacity of sensory memory?
Large
View source
According to the multi-store model, what transfers information from sensory memory to STM?
Paying attention
View source
What is the short-term memory (STM)?
A
temporary
memory
store
View source
What is the limited capacity of the short-term memory (STM)?
Between
five
and
nine
items

What are the items in STM referred to as?
Chunks of information
View source
How long does information last in the short-term memory (STM)?
Up to
30 seconds
View source
How does verbal repetition (rehearsal) keep information in STM?
By
maintaining
the information
View source
According to the multi-store model, what transfers information from STM to LTM?
Rehearsal
for long enough
View source
How is information encoded in LTM?
By
meaning
View source
What is the capacity of LTM?
Unlimited
View source
What is the duration of information in LTM?
Up to a
lifetime
View source
How does Baddeley’s study of encoding support the existence of different memory stores?
STM
and
LTM
encode differently
View source
What is a weakness of the multi-store model?
It is too
simple
View source
How does research contradict the multi-store model's claim of having only one STM and one LTM?
STM and LTM are further
divided
