Patient KF was in an accident and had a digit span of 1. His paired associate learning with a 24 hour delay was normal. What does this say about working memories relationship with long term memory?
Respuesta
Long term memory is dependant on short term memory.
Working memory cannot be considered the 'gateway' into long term memory.
Verbal IQ and performance IQ are unrelated to memory.
Long term memory and working memory can be considered the same thing.

Pregunta 3
Pregunta
Conrad (1964) came to the conclusion that short-term memory uses a phonological code. What led him to this conclusion?
Respuesta
Errors in serial recall were acoustic in nature.
Errors in serial recall weren't related to their acoustic properties.
Spatial interference reduced performance on memory tasks.
From our experience with replaying words in our minds to remember them.
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
Considering our use of a phonological loop for rehearsal, what predictions can be made about remembering lists of either long words or shorter words?
Respuesta
There will be more success in remembering a list of shorter words due to ease of rehearsal in the phonological loop.
The list of longer words will be easier to remember because of the words distinctiveness.
Both lists will be remembered as well as each other due to primacy and recency effects.
The list with longer words will be harder to remember due to varying levels of vocabulary ability within a sample.
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
Articulatory suppression eliminates phonological similarity and word length effects for visually presented stimuli but not stimuli presented auditorily. Why is this the case?
Respuesta
Auditory stimuli proceed directly to the phonological store.
Auditory stimuli proceed to the phonological loop via the articulatory control process.
Visual information goes directly into the phonological store.
Visual information is not related to the phonological loop.
