Mainly Semantic - ANSWER✔✔-What is the Coding of the Long Term Memory store?


P: There are multiple different studies to show the existence of the separate stores and how different

they are


E: Baddey's "Delayed Confusion" and "Immediate Confusion" studies showed that the Short Term

Memory and Long Term Memory are coded differently


E: And the "Yearbook" study by Bahrick showed the duration of Long Term Memory and how info is

retrieved into Short Term Memory


L: This is a strength of the model as it clearly shows there are different stores and how they are different.


The abundance if empirical evidence adds validity to the theory - ANSWER✔✔-How does research

support the existence of separate memory stores?


P: The Primacy/Recency Effect can be used to add validity to the Multi-Store Model


E: When remembering lists of words we often remember words at the beginning and end better than the

middle


E: This is because words at the beginning have been rehearsed and are transferred into the LTM, and

words at the end are still in the STM. However the words in the middle have been displaced


L: This clearly shows how information flows through the Multi-Store Model but also supports the idea

that the Short Term Memory and the Long Term Memory are different in terms of their Capacity,

Duration and Coding - ANSWER✔✔-What is the Primacy/Recency Effect and how does it add validity to

the Multi-Store Model?


P: The Morris et al (1977) study challenges the importance placed on rehearsal by the Multi-Store Model
