Question 1
Question
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?
Answer
-
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.
Question 2
Question
What are the main components of Baddeley and Hitchs' working memory model?
Answer
-
Central Executive
-
Phonological Loop
-
Visuo-spatial Sketchpad
-
Episodic Buffer
-
Attentional Control System
-
Executive Function
-
Visual Loop
-
Articulatory control process
Question 3
Question
Conrad (1964) came to the conclusion that short-term memory uses a phonological code. What led him to this conclusion?
Answer
-
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.
Question 4
Question
Considering our use of a phonological loop for rehearsal, what predictions can be made about remembering lists of either long words or shorter words?
Answer
-
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.
Question 5
Question
Articulatory suppression eliminates phonological similarity and word length effects for visually presented stimuli but not stimuli presented auditorily. Why is this the case?
Answer
-
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.
Question 6
Question
What are the likely outcomes for each task when visual interference is applied?
Answer
-
Spatial task = success Visual task = fail
-
Spatial task = fail Visual task = fail
-
Spatial task = success Visual task = success
-
Spatial task = fail Visual task = success
Question 7
Question
Contention scheduling prioritizes action schemas based on...
Answer
-
Relatedness to current goals.
-
Schemas that have been used the most.
-
Random chance.
-
Directions from executive control systems.
