Memory (Explanations for forgetting (Interference theory: When similar…

- - - - Schmidt et al.: Street names
  - - - When forgetting occurs due to the external environment being different to that at encoding
      - Godden and Baddeley: Divers
    - - When internal cues are different at recall from encoding
      - Overton: Drunk and sober recall
- - - - Coding: Separate sensory stores for different sensory inputs
        
        Crowder
      - Capacity: Huge
        
        Sperling
      - Duration: Brief; varies between sensory stores
        
        Walsh and Thompson
    - - Coding: Mainly acoustic
        
        Baddeley
      - Capacity: Small; 5-9 chunks of information
        
        Jacobs
      - Duration: Short; maximum of thirty seconds
        
        Peterson and Peterson
    - - Coding: Mainly semantic
        
        Baddeley
      - Capacity: Huge
        
        Anokhin
      - Duration: Potentially for a lifetime
        
        Bahrick et al.
    - - This is done in STM
      - A method of increasing STM capacity by grouping information into larger units
  - - - Oversees and coordinates the components of working-memory - processes and directs information to the slave systems
      - Baddeley - random number lists and keyboards
    - - Deals with auditory information
      - Splits into the Primary Acoustic Store (stores words heard) and the Articulatory Process (allows sub-vocal repetition)
      - Trojani and Grossi - case study of SC lost functioning of PL but not VSS
    - - Deals with visual information and the physical relationship of items
      - Splits into the visual-cache (stores information about form and colour) and the inner scribe (stores information about the physical relationship of items)
      - Gathercole and Baddeley: Describing F angles and tracking light
    - - A temporary store of integrated information from the central executive
      - Added to explain how it possible to combine information short-term from different stores
      - Alkhalifa: Case study with extremely good STM
