Cognitive Psychology - The Multistore Model of Memory, Atkinson and Shiffrin 1968
8 important questions on Cognitive Psychology - The Multistore Model of Memory, Atkinson and Shiffrin 1968
What kind of model is the multistore model of memory?
How does sensory memory encode information according to the multistore model of memory?
How does short term memory encode information according to the multistore model of memory?
Shown through the phonological similarity effect: the phenomenon that letters and words of a similar sound are more difficult to recall than those that sound different. Atkinson and Schiffrin attribute this to short term memory encoding acoustically which is why it confuses words that sound similar.
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
How much duration does sensory memory have according to the multistore model of memory?
Shown through the research of Sperling where a visual array was presented via a tachistoscope for a brief moment and the results were that the sensory register can only hold information for less than one second before it is lost.
How much duration does short term memory have according to the multistore model of memory?
Shown through the research of Peterson and Peterson where participants had to remember a trigram which was read out whilst completing the interference task of counting backwards in threes, stopping participants from being able to rehearse the information and transfer it to long term memory. Results showed that correct recall decreased rapidly after 15 to 18 seconds.
How does sensory memory retrieve information according to the multistore model of memory?
How does long term memory forget information according to the multistore model of memory?
How much duration does long term memory have according to the multistore model of memory?
Shown through the research of Brady et al where participants were shown 2,500 objects in pairs over 5.5 hours and were asked to identify the objects they had seen. Results showed that similar objects had an 88% identification rate, whereas dissimilar objects had a 92% identification rate, demonstrating that thousands of images can be maintained successfully over long periods of time.
