Document Summary
Atkinson-shiffrin memory model: long-term memory systems, declarative/explicit (chapter 7, semantic, episodic, non-declarative/procedural/implicit/skill memory (chapter 8, learned through repetition, apparently infinite capacity, stored knowledge not currently in mind biological: another clue that there may be two different systems. These clues indicate there is two different memory system, but how to interact? sensory and stm are transient and brief. Inputs from the environment into sensory memory briefly, any important information are attended to. Stm is when information is in your consciousness, you"re aware. You can have info that goes from stm to ltm (bidirectional arrow) Ltm learned through repetition/practice and unconscious of ltm. Multimodal: general sense not like sensory memory. 2 l l a c e r t n e c r e. Short-term memory (stm: multimodal (general for senses, small capacity, quick decay (<1 min) and over-writing, rehearsal preserves info in stm, transfer to/from ltm. Source: adapted from atkinson, r. c. , & shiffrin, r. m. (1968).
