The Multi-store model of memory The Multi-store model of memory was proposed by Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1968. It describes the structural features of the memory system‚ and various control processes used by individuals to manipulate the information flowing through the system. It uses the theory that memory is characterized as a flow of information. The system is divided into a set of stages and information passes through each stage in a fixed sequence. There is capacity and duration limitations

Cognitive learning is a powerful mechanism that provides the means of knowledge‚ and goes well beyond simple imitation of others. Conditioning

Information is first detected from environmental stimuli and stored in the sensory memory as haptic‚ echoic or visual information. Only certain information can only be paid attention to‚ as the capacity and duration of the sensory memory is very limited. This information is then passed onto the STM. Only 7 + - 2 items can only be stored
