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.
