Document Summary
Chapter 5: the acquisition of memories and the working-memory system. Theorizing within this model focused on the process through which information was perceived and then moved into memory storage (process of information acquisition) Early model proposed by waugh and norman (1965), later refinements were added by. Consensus came to be known as the modal model. Modal model states that information processing involves different kinds of memory: when memory first arrives its stored briefly in sensory memory which hold onto the i(cid:374)put of (cid:862)(cid:396)a(cid:449)(cid:863) se(cid:374)so(cid:396)(cid:455) i(cid:374)fo(cid:396)(cid:373)atio(cid:374) The idea of sensory memory plays a much smaller role in modern theorizing, and so modern discussions of perception often make no mention of this memory: 2. Working memory is a storage place (loading dock just outside of ltm), information has to pass through wm to get to ltm. Memory retrieval involves the movement of information out of storage back into wm. Working memory is the name we give to a status.
