Multi store model of memory
Across
- 3. the process of storing something that is seen in our memory system.
- 6. for memory, this refers to the information we recall; in a broader sense, output can refer to behavioural response.
- 9. when we repeat information over and over again to make it stick.
- 13. the amount of information that can be stored in short-term and long-term memory.
- 14. the process of storing sound in our memory system.
- 15. when the short-term memory becomes ‘full’ and new information pushes out older information.
Down
- 1. the length of time information can be stored in short-term and long-term memory.
- 2. a memory store that holds potentially limitless amounts of information for up to lifetime.
- 4. for human memory, this refers to the sensory information we receive from our environment.
- 5. when new information overwrites older information, for example when a new phone number takes the place of an old number in your memory.
- 7. the operations we perform on sensory information in the brain.
- 8. the process of storing the meaning of information in our memory system, rather than the sound of a word, we store the definition/ meaning of that word.
- 10. the retention of information in our memory system.
- 11. the recall of stored memories.
- 12. turning sensory information into a form that can be used and stored by the brain.
- 16. our initial memory store that is temporary and limited.
