Central executive Correct Answer - acts as a filter to determine what information is received - limited capacity - baddeley found participants couldn't type letters and numbers on a keyboard whilst speaking random numbers - limited research Phonological loop Correct Answer - stores verbal information - divided into: - acoustic store: holds words heard - articulatory process: holds words heard and repeats them Visuo-spatial sketchpad Correct Answer - stores visual and spatial informa...

Coding, Capacity and Duration of Memory - Answer AO1 Researching into Coding: Baddeley Research into capacity: Miller and Jacobs Research into Duration: Peterson and Peterson + Bahrick AO3 @Coding- words lists have no personal significance- artificial stimulus @Capacity- Miller may have overestimated capacity (7+-2 where 7-2 more appropriate) @Capacity- Jacobs conducted long time ago- lack of control to extraneous variables- however there is supporting research so increased validity ...

Multi Store Model: Atkinson and Shiffrin - Answer Proposed that memory consisted of three stores in a linear way: sensory register: stimulus from environment pass into the SR and has a infinite capacity, duration is less than half a second and coded acoustically or visually, STM and LTM --Sensory register (Attention) --STM (maintenance rehearsal to stay in STM) (rehearsal to transfer to LTM) --LTM (retrieval to go back to STM) +AO3: MSM research evidence - Answer Supported by r...

Study of capacity of STM - Answer Miller (Immediate Digit Span Test) Jacobs Support Study of duration of STM - Answer Peterson and Peterson (Trigrams) 24 students given a consonant syllable and a three digit number ie. THX 512. They were asked to recall the consonant syllable after a retention interval of 3, 6 , 9, 12 or 15 seconds. During this interval they had to count backwards from their three digit number. Participants were 90% correct after 3 seconds, 20% correct after 9 and only...

AQA A level Psychology – Memory Questions and Answers Rated A+ Coding Format in which information is stored in the various memory stores Research on coding Baddeley (1966) Word lists: acoustically/semantically similar or dissimilar Asked to recall in correct order Immediate recall: worse with acoustically similar words After 20 minutes: worse with semantically similar words STM acoustic, LTM semantic Acoustically similar Sound similar Semantically similar Similar meaning Research on codin...

Baddeley (1966) - Answer CODING IN STM & LTM Acoustically similar/dissimilar words Semantically similar/dissimilar words Immediate recall worse for acoustically similar STM is acoustic Recall after 20 mins worse with semantically similar words LTM is semantic Jacobs (1887) - Answer CAPACITY OF STM Digit span: researcher reads 4 digits and increases until the order cannot be recalled correctly 9.3 numbers 7.3 letters Miller (1956) - Answer CAPACITY OF STM Observed that m...
