Multi store model

• Short term memory (STM) - holds small amounts of info for short periods, can be consciously recalled or rehearsed to move into long term memory
• Long-term memory (LTM) is the third stage of processing information, where memories are stored over long periods of time.
• Sensory register - temporary storage area that receives information from our senses
• Short term memory (STM) is the second stage of processing information, where we hold onto information briefly to process it further or use it later on.
• The multi-store model is the most widely accepted theory of human memory.
• Sensory register is the first stage of processing information, where sensations are received from our senses.
• STM has a limited capacity but unlimited duration if attended to by the individual.
• Semantic memory is the sixth stage of processing information, where we remember general knowledge and facts.
• STM has a limited capacity but unlimited duration as long as attention is paid to it.
• Working memory is the fourth stage of processing information, where we actively manipulate and combine pieces of information.
• If not transferred to STM, information will fade away within seconds.
• Episodic memory is the fifth stage of processing information, where we remember specific events and experiences.
• Working memory is the fourth stage of processing information, where we actively manipulate and combine information.
• STM has a very limited capacity but unlimited duration.
• Information enters through the sensory registers, which temporarily stores incoming stimuli until they're processed by the brain.
• If information does not enter STM then it will disappear forever.
• Information enters through the sensory registers which have limited capacity and duration.
