Models of Memory

Memory can be defined as the process of 

• encoding, storing and retrieving information.
• stroing of information
• processing of information
• none of the above

Which model of memory is this and who proposed it?

• Computer Model, Craig
• Stage Model, Atkinson
• Processing Model, Shiffrin
• Information Processing Model, Atkinson & Shriffin

Short Term Memory is also known as 

• flashbulb memory
• semantic memory
• sensory memory
• working memory

Long term Memory is divide into

• Explicit & Implicit

• Sensory & Short-term

• working memory & procedural memory

Declarative memory is memory of

• facts & events

• process

• life events

• conscious thoughts

This memory represents our memory of experiences and specific events in time in a serial form. Which memory is this

• Long term

• Semantic

• Episodic

• Flashbulb

What are the storages in the multistore memory model?

• shallow processing and deep processing

• phonological loop, episodic buffer and visuo-spatial sketchpad

• sensory register, short term storage and long term storage

• declarative and non-declarative memory

Why do the information in the short term storage may disappear?

• Lack of attention

• Displaced by new information

• Retrieval process is interfered

• It is a shallow processing

According working memory model

• Long term storage has more than single storage

• Sensory register has more than single storage

• Memory is dependent on level of processing

• Short term storage consist of many storages

The central executive is

• Manage the retrieval, attention and inhibition

• Located in the ocipital lobe

• Store the numeric information

• store informatin about events and episodes
