Multi Store Memory Model Terms
Memory systems in the brain involved in holding small amounts of information, often up to 30 seconds
what is short term memory
In Sperling's study, what task did participants have to perform immediately after being presented with a matrix of letters?
What is reporting as many letters as possible from a specific row of the matrix?
What aspect of Sperling's 1960 study on visual memory raised questions about its generalizability beyond laboratory settings?
What is the controlled laboratory conditions, which may not accurately reflect real-world situations?
What innovative procedure did Glanzer and Cunitz employ in their 1966 study on memory recall?
What is the free recall technique?
How does Glanzer and Cunitz's study on memory recall contribute to our understanding of human memory processes?
What is it highlights the effect of serial position on memory recall, providing insights into how memory works in everyday situations?
Memory of processes that take information from short term memory store and creates long lasting memories
What is long term memory
What was the purpose of using a tachistoscope in Sperling's experiment?
What is presenting visual stimuli for a very brief duration to measure sensory memory capacity?
Sperling's 1960 study primarily focused on what demographic group, raising concerns about its generalizability to other populations?
What is college students, which may not represent the broader population in terms of age, education level, and cognitive abilities?
Glanzer and Cunitz's method involved presenting participants with lists of words followed by a delay. What was the purpose of this delay in their study?
What is to investigate the serial position effect by examining participants' ability to recall words at different positions within the list?
What potential limitation of Glanzer and Cunitz's study raises questions about the generalizability of their findings beyond the laboratory setting?
What is the use of controlled stimuli lists, which may not fully represent the complexity of real-life memory tasks?
Perception of sight, hearing , small, taste, and touch information entering through the sensory cortexes of the brain and relating through the thalamus.
What is sensory memory
In Sperling's study, what term describes the visual presentation of a grid of letters for a fraction of a second?
What is "iconic memory" or "visual sensory memory"?
The stimuli used in Sperling's 1960 study were typically presented under what controlled conditions, limiting the generalizability of the findings to naturalistic environments?
What are brief, controlled presentations, which may not mirror the complexity and duration of visual stimuli encountered in everyday life?
In Glanzer and Cunitz's study, what two conditions did they compare to examine the serial position effect?
What are immediate recall and delayed recall conditions?
How did Glanzer and Cunitz ensure the validity of their findings in their study on memory recall?
What is they employed rigorous experimental controls and statistical analyses to ensure the reliability and accuracy of their results?
Takes information from the short term memory and transfers them so they last longer
What is long term memory
How did Sperling measure the capacity of the sensory memory in his study?
What is calculating the average number of letters correctly recalled from a specific row of the letter grid?
In the context of the multi-store memory model, what is the relevance of Sperling's 1960 study on visual memory?
Sperling's 1960 study demonstrated the existence of sensory memory, which is a component of the multi-store memory model.
What term describes the phenomenon observed by Glanzer and Cunitz, where participants were more likely to recall words from the beginning and end of a list, but struggled to recall words from the middle?
What is the serial position effect?
How can Glanzer and Cunitz's findings on memory recall be related to everyday experiences or real-world applications?
What is by understanding how the serial position effect influences memory, individuals can improve their study habits, presentation techniques, and information retention strategies?
Designer of the multi store memory model
Who is Atkinson and Shriffin
What method did Sperling use to ensure that participants could not predict which row of letters they would be asked to recall?
What is flashing a high or low tone immediately after presenting the letter grid to indicate the specific row to be recalled?
How did Sperling's 1960 study on visual memory contribute to our understanding of the multi-store memory model?
It highlighted the initial processing of sensory information before it is transferred to short-term memory.
Glanzer and Cunitz's research on memory recall is often cited in discussions about what broader concept in cognitive psychology?
What is the structure and function of memory?
How might educators and professionals use the insights from Glanzer and Cunitz's study to enhance learning and memory retention?
What is by structuring learning materials to take advantage of the primacy and recency effects, educators can optimize memory recall in educational settings?
