| Questão | Responda |
| Multi-store model | Proposed by Atkinson and Shiffrin, it explains how our memory processes information |
| Sensory store | Receives information from the senses, remains in the store for a brief period. If focused on, the information transfers to the STM |
| Short term memory | Information disappears quickly if not rehearsed. Capacity = 7(+-2) chunks. Duration = 18-30 seconds. |
| Long term memory | Information travels here from STM with rehearsal, the capacity and duration is unlimited |
| Semantic memory | For knowledge about words and the world, gives meaning to words |
| Episodic memory | What has happened recently such as what you had for dinner yesterday |
| Procedural memory | Memory of activities such as riding a bike or learning to read |
| Serial position effect | Explains that people recall words at the start of a list because it is stored in the LTM (primacy effect), and words at the end because they are still in STM (recency effect) |
| Central executive | Part of working memory model - sends information to the right part of working memory, it has limited capacity |
| Phonological loop | Component of working memory that processes verbal information |
| Articulatory control system | Part of phonological loop, processes verbal words |
| Phonological store | Part of phonological loop, it processes things you hear |
| Visual-spatial sketchpad | Part of working memory, it holds visual and spatial information (relationship between things e.g maps) |
| Episodic buffer | Part of working memory, it was added in 2000, and integrates information with the other stores, but has limited capacity |
| Eye witness testimony | Evidence from people who witness an event such as a crime, reporting from their memory |
| Anxiety | An unpleasant emotional state where we fear something bad is about to happen, can influence EWT |
| Method of Loci | A memory improvement technique which creates several neural pathways to memory, making it more likely to be remembered |
| Chunking | Dividing a string of information into memorable chunks e.g postcodes |
| Duration | A measure of how long a memory lasts before it is no longer available |
| Capacity | A measure of how much information can be held in memory |
| Word - length effect | Explains that people remember lists of short words better than lists of long words |
| Misleading questions | Hints to the witness what answer is desired |
| Cognitive interview | A police technique for interviewing witnesses, which lets them recreate what happened in order to access the stored information |
| Mnemonic | A technique used to help people remember and recall information |
