Multi Store Model

• Multi store model stores

  1. Sensory register
  2. Short term memory
  3. Long term memory
• primacy effect


  Items presented earlier in a list are more likely to be transferred to LTM because they have ad more opportunities for rehearsal and encoding
• recency effect


  • items presented later in a list are still present in STM and are more easily recalled due to their recent presence in memory
  • These items are still actively maintained in STM and so are readily accessible for recall
