Resumo de Recurso
The nature of memory: STM, LTM & Duration
Duration
STM
Doesn't last very long
Example
Remembering 7 digit phone no
Maintained in STM via repetition
Fades when convo starts
Rehearsal
Repetition to keep re-presenting to STM
Keeps memory active
Result of verbal rehearsal
STM held in STM store and eventually become LT
Lloyd & Margaret Peterson (1959)
Landmark study of duration of STM
24 Students attending uni
Experimenter says consonant syllable
Followed by 3-digit no (e.g. WRT 303)
Selected to have no meaning
'BBC' meaningful
Immediately after hearing syllable & no
Count backwards in 3s /4s until told to stop
Interference to stop rehearsal
After - ppts recall nonsense syllable
Each ppt given 2 practice trials
Each trial, retention interval (time spent counting backwards) different - 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,& 18 secs
Ppts remembered about 90% - 3 sec interval
2% remembered - 18 sec interval
When rehearsal prevented STM lasts about 20 mins at most
LTM
2 hours to 100 years
Anything that isn't short term
Some are long lasting
Shepard (1967)
Showed ppts 612 memorable pics, one at a time
Hour later
Shown some of these pics among others
Almost perfect recognition
4 months later
Still able to recognise 50% of pics
Bahrick et al (1975)
Ask people of various ages
Put names to faces from high school year book
48 years later
75% Accuracy
Evaluation
Duration of STM may be shorter
Peterson & Peterson
Findings been challenged
Argue
Ppts relying on more than STM alone
Knew they were going to recall items after interval
Other research (e.g. Marsh et al)
Suggested - ppts do not expect to be tested after this interval
Forgetting may occur after just 2 secs
Suggests - our understanding of duration of STM may not be as clear-cut as once thought
Not quite so STM
More recent research
Suggests - duration of STM
Not as short as Peterson & Peterson study suggests
Naime et al (1999)
Found - items could be recalled after as long as 96 secs
Seems, that info remains in STM
Quite a while unless other material replaces / overwrites it
Ppts asked to recall same items actross trials
Other studies, different items used on each trials
Led to interference between items, decreasing recall
Validity
Criticism of Peterson & Peterson
Psychologists only studying 1 kind of memory
For syllables & words
Much of time our memories concerned w/ other things
E.g what happened last night, what my children look like
Times when remembering words
E.g. Ordering drinks, remembering someones phone no
Another critism
Peterson & Peterson not actually testing duration
When Ppts counting backwards
Nonsense syllable could've been displaced in STM
By nos, wiping out memory for syllables
