Information Processing - Multistore Model

Which type of memory includes skills and habits in the multistore model?

• Explicit memory
• Procedural memory
• Declarative memory
• Episodic memory

How does the multistore model explain the transfer of information from short-term memory to long-term memory?

• Through forgetting
• Through sensory processing
• Through immediate transfer
• Through rehearsal and encoding

In the multistore model, what happens to information that is not transferred from short-term memory to long-term memory?

• It is immediately encoded
• It is processed by the sensory register
• It remains in short-term memory indefinitely
• It is lost

Which stage of the multistore model involves the processing of sensory information from the five senses?

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

Which stage of the multistore model is characterized by a limited capacity and duration?

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

What is the duration of information in short-term memory?

• Indefinite
• A few seconds
• A few minutes
• A few hours

Which stage of the multistore model allows for the storage of vast amounts of information over long periods of time?

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

How is information actively processed in short-term memory?

• By encoding it into long-term memory
• By ignoring it
• By manipulating and rehearsing it
• By transferring it to the sensory register

How many items can short-term memory typically hold according to the multistore model?

• 5 plus or minus 2 items
• 10 plus or minus 2 items
• 3 plus or minus 2 items
• 7 plus or minus 2 items

What happens to information in short-term memory if it is not actively processed?

• It is processed by the sensory register
• It remains in short-term memory indefinitely
• It is lost
• It is transferred to long-term memory
