Capacity 7+/- 2 items of information Miller 1956 -found out that most people could only repeat back between five and nine items Chunking can increase the capacity of short term memory. For example: GCSE
Duration Peterson and Peterson 1959 Aim: Establish the duration of short term memory when Rehearsal is prevented Participants heard a Trigram which was held up to 30 seconds. They were asked to recall it immediately or recall it after a set of retention interval:3,6,9,12,15 or 18 seconds. During the period before recall, they were asked to count backwards in 3's from a specified number to prevent Maintenance Rehearsal Conclusion: Without Rehearsal, the duration of STM is only a few seconds
Encoding Encoding :The way the information is put into each store : Acoustic form Conard 1964 Aim: To establish the form in which information is encode into STM Participants were shown a sequence of six letters.They were asked to write them down as the appeared,but the presentation ran to fast for them to keep.
