Memory - Multi Store Model

In the context of understanding how humans remember and forget information, who proposed the foundational Multi-Store Model (MSM) of memory? Alex finds this topic particularly intriguing.

• Baddeley (1966)

• Miller (1956)

• Peterson & Peterson (1959)

• Atkinson & Shiffrin (1968)

Imagine Layla is learning to play a new song on the guitar. What are the three components of the Multi-Store Model of memory that will help her remember how to play it?

• Sensory register, Short-term memory, Long-term memory

• Encoding, Storage, Retrieval

• Implicit memory, Explicit memory, Emotional memory

• Visual memory, Auditory memory, Semantic memory

Imagine Makayla is trying to remember a phone number someone just told her. According to the Multi-Store Model, in which format is this information primarily coded in her Short-term memory (STM)?

• Semantic

• Visual

• Acoustic

• Tactile

Imagine Aiden and Emma are trying to remember a shopping list without writing it down. According to Miller (1956), what is the capacity of Short-term memory (STM) for holding such information?

• 5 +/- 2 chunks

• 7 +/- 2 chunks

• Unlimited

• 9 +/- 2 chunks

Imagine Leah and Zach are trying to remember a grocery list without writing it down. Which study supports the idea that they can only hold this list in their Short-term memory (STM) for a limited duration before forgetting items?

• Bahrick (1975)

• Peterson & Peterson (1959)

• Miller (1956)

• Baddeley (1966)

Imagine Gabbi and Yumiko are studying for their final exams and trying to remember important concepts for the long term. According to the Multi-Store Model, what type of coding is primarily used by their Long-term memory (LTM)?

• Tactile

• Visual

• Acoustic

• Semantic

Imagine a scenario where Amelia is able to recall every detail of her life experiences without any limit. Which research supports the idea that this unlimited recall ability in Long-term memory (LTM) is possible?

• Baddeley (1966)

• Peterson & Peterson (1959)

• Miller (1956)

• Bahrick (1975)

Imagine Makayla glanced at a street sign while driving. What is the duration of that information in her sensory register?

• Lifetime duration

• Up to 18 seconds

• Less than 1 second

• Approximately 20 seconds

Imagine Kiera and Zach working on a complex problem that requires juggling various pieces of information simultaneously. Which model was developed as an explanation of the complexity of Short-term memory (STM) and to account for findings not explained by the MSM in such scenarios?

• The Cognitive Model

• The Working Memory Model

• The Emotional Memory Model

• The Long-term Potentiation Model

What evidence supports the idea that different brain regions are responsible for different components of the MSM? Molly and Ethan found this particularly intriguing during their study group.

• Case studies of amnesia patients

• Cross-sectional studies

• Evidence from brain scans

• Longitudinal studies
