Outline and evaluate the multi-store model of memory (12) The multi-store model of memory (MSM) was developed by Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1968 and explains how information flows from one storage system to another‚ with three permanent structures in memory: sensory memory (SM)‚ short-term memory (STM) and long-term memory (LTM). It describes memory as something made up of a series of stores and these each differ in terms of their capacity‚ duration and encoding process. Information is detected

In 1974 the researchers Baddeley and Hitch argued that the picture of short-term memory (STM) provided by the Multi-Store Model was far too simple. Following the Multi-Store Model‚ it is believed that STM holds limited amounts of information for short periods of time with relatively little processing‚ it is believed to be a unitary store. This means that due to its single store it has no subsystems‚ unlike the Working Memory Model which has many subsystems. This proves that the Working Memory is

Outline and Evaluate research into Cultural Variation in attachment If attachment is a biological innate process‚ as Bowlby’s theory suggests‚ then secure attachment should be the best form for all humans regardless of variations in culture. However‚ there is much research against this statement‚ making us question whether attachment is or is not a biological innate process at all. Studies such as Ainsworth’s Uganda research support Bowlby’s theory. She observed how infants in Uganda‚ like in

Disobedience is a valuable human trait and it promotes social progress. The beginning of time starts with disobedience. Humans tend to attract to trouble like a moth to a flame. When someone is born they start off disobedient. Humans have to be taught how to behave. It is to be imbedded into our brains to make the right decisions. The Bible is a good example of this claim. When God told Eve not to eat the fruit from the garden‚ what did she do? She ate the fruit instead of following God’s directions
