Atkinson & shiffrin (1968) the modal model: sensory memory > short-term memory > long-term memory. Sensory memory: very brief perceptual store, stimulus information is stored for a very brief time, most studied iconic (visual) and echoic (auditory) Partial recall: subjects are able to recall much more if the cue is presented immediately, cues reference physical characteristics, those that reference nonphysical characteristics don"t work.
