    Study Notes

    Overview of Multi-Store Model of Memory

    • Developed by Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1968.
    • Known as the modal model, representing memory structure.
    • Identifies three distinct stores: sensory register, short-term memory (STM), and long-term memory (LTM).

    Structure of the Model

    • Sensory Register: First point of contact for information; briefly holds sensory data.
    • Short-Term Memory (STM): Limited capacity storage; information retained through rehearsal.
    • Long-Term Memory (LTM): Information encoded for long-term storage; potentially unlimited capacity.

    Process of Memory

    • Information flows linearly between stores: sensory register → short-term memory → long-term memory.
    • Resembles an information processing model akin to computer functions: input (sensory register), process (STM), output (LTM).
    • Attention is crucial for transferring information from the sensory register to STM.
