Document Summary

Clive wearing: life without memory (test question: location of lesion), watch youtube video. Given an experiment, decide how the experiment demonstrates any of the 4 characteristics of the stss p(cid:396)o(cid:272)essi(cid:374)g (cid:272)apa(cid:271)ilities. No one previous could prove the existence of the stss presentation/shown very quickly) Study: flash matrix of letters to participants (stochisticoscopic. 0% recall accuracy otherwise, it was rather an issue in the study) We must therefore not have a stss (but sperling thought. Too much information for a person to remember. High, med, and low tones: high tone-top row, med tone-mid row, low tone-bottom row (still letters) Now only reporting one row as opposed to 3. Number of items recalled as a function of delay (delay of tone) Demonstrates the temporal limitations of the stss and proves its existence the stss. Tone and matrix presented simultaneously = 100 percent recall. Matrix presented, tone presented 150ms afterwards = 75% recall accuracy.
