Memory
  1. Nature
    1. Short term
      1. Encoding
        1. Visual, acoustic
        2. Duration
          1. Peterson and Peterson 1959
            1. M: 24 students given 3 consonant syllable to be remembered and 3 digit number
              1. Asked to count backwards from number until told to stop and recall the triagram, one interval of 3 seconds and 18 seconds
              2. R: 3 second interval = ppts recalled 90%, 18 second interval = ppts recalled 2%
                1. C: STM duration is 18 seconds
              3. Capacity
                1. Miller 1956
                  1. Concluded that span of stm is 7 +/- 2
                    1. Found we can recall 5 words as well as 5 letters as we chunk things together
                    2. Simon 1974
                      1. Found people had shorter span for larger chunks than smaller chunks such as one syllable words
                  2. Long term
                    1. Duration
                      1. Potentially unlimited as researcher can be outlived

                              1. C: Long term memory can last for many years
                            2. Capacity

                                1. Baddeley 1966
                                  1. M: Participants given list of words that were acoustically similar/dissimilar and list of words that meant the same/dissimilar
                                    1. R: Participants had more difficulty remembering acoustically similar words in STM but not LTM
                                      1. R: Semantically similar words no problem for STM, but problematic for LTM

                                    1. Atkinson and Shiffrin 1968

                                        1. Environmental stimuli goes to sensory memory
                                          1. Attention to stimuli transfers information to short term memory
                                            1. Disappears if not rehearsed (maintenance) or if displaced by new information
                                            2. Elaborative rehersal transfers information to long term memory
