Document Summary
Show good memory for previous events, but has trouble forming new memories: he served in the navy in the war in 1943 at 17, he stayed until 1965. He was good at math and science, and was an expert in morse code. Review of the multi-store model: atkinson and shiffrin, environmental input to sensory registers, to short term store, to long term store. People mentally rehearse the consonants: the second phase: they gave three consonants, had the delay again. But, there was an interference task of counting backwards from a certain number by another number: this stops people from rehearsing the consonants that were shown first, results: as the delay went up the accuracy went down. Sensory memory codes: basic features, not semantic, not linguistic. Intrusion errors are sound related: wickelgren: aurally give people letters, and given an intrusion task.
