Describe and Evaluate the Multi-store model of Memory (16)
-After giving tips on how to get 16/16, there is a 16/16 exemplar essay of the question
above
Tips: In order to hit the top band and get 16/16 you MUST:
- Use the PEEAL structure for evaluation argument paragraphs. Point Evidence/Example
Analysis Link.
- You should aim for 3 well structured PEEAL paragraphs for evaluation but if not during
the exam try doing 4 paragraphs if you do not have enough detail for 3.
- Make sure the first argument you make can be countered with phrases like However,
Although on the other hand etc to make it clear to the examiner it is a counter argument.
- For your link or analysis try adding research methods such as does the study or model
lack or have validity is it ethical or is it reliable? Is it too simplistic or complex? Is there
deception? Is it harmful? Ecological validity or if there is a better study or model.
- A 16 marker is split into 6 and 10 marks 6 is for A01(explanation of the model in this
case the MSM) and 10 for A03(evaluating the model criticizing it).
- If you are running out of time, focus on A03 as it has more marks and do not write
useless things. Pick 6 points that you think will get marks for A01 and do 3-4 A03 PEEAL
paragraphs.
- Try TO LINK OTHER STUDIES OR MODELS for A03 if u can to show that they are
better or if what you are talking about is better.
- Some 16 markers consist of A02 marks for application using data or text given into you
A01 and A03 make links and always refer to text or data given in any way bc IF YOU
DON’T you will lose marks in A01 and A03.
- You can you shorten words if allowed such as multi-store model into MSM to save time
but always ask your teachers because not everything can be shorten.
Atkinson and Shiffrin proposed the multi-store model which describes how information flows
through the memory system. The model suggests that memory is made up of 3 stores including
the sensory register, the short-term memory store and the long term memory store which are
linked by processing. It also describes how information is transferred from one store to another,
how it is remembered and how it is forgotten. A stimulus from the environment will pass into the
sensory registers along with lots of other sights, sounds and smells and so on. This part of the
memory has 1 store for each of our 5 senses. The iconic memory store is coded visually and it's
for visual information and the echoic memory store is coded acoustically and it is for auditory
information. Very little of what goes into the sensory register will pass further into the memory
system unless you pay attention to it which is the key process. The next store is STM which is
known as the limited capacity store because it can only contain a certain number of things
before forgetting takes place. Its capacity is 7 plus or minus 2 items, is coded acoustically and
its duration is about 18 to 30 seconds unless it's rehearsed. Maintenance rehearsal occurs
when we repeat or rehearse material to ourselves over and over again. We can keep the
information in our STMs as long as we rehearse it and if we rehearse it long enough, it passes
into long term memory. LTM is the potentially permanent memory store for information that has
