------------------------------------------------- Outline and evaluate the multi-store model? The multi-store model is a model of memory that has the advantage of being able to be broken down into sub-models of memory. According to the multi-store model of memory (Atkinson & Shiffrin‚ 1968) memory can be explained in terms of 3 stores (sensory store‚ short term store and long term store) and 2 processes (attention and rehearsal). Sensory Memory stores the incoming information from the senses
