Inelastic demand refers to the situation where one unit increase or decrease in the product’s price cause less than one dollar change in the units demanded of that product (Kreps‚ D. M. 1990).

Long-term memory is commonly described as being a somewhat permanent store of knowledge‚ information and experience gained by an individual over the course of their life (Aschcraft & Radvansky‚ 2010); long term memory is therefore fairly complex and is comprised of multiple different components which can then be subdivided into explicit memory‚ information stored consciously in the memory such as a colleagues name‚ and implicit memory‚ information that when unconsciously accessed can influence our

How is information stored into your long-term memory? * Information is stored in long-term memory on a relatively permanent basis‚ although it may be difficult to retrieve. * Long-term memory is intended for storage of information over a long time. Information from the working memory is transferred to it after a few seconds. Unlike in working memory‚ there is little decay. * The transfer of material from short- to long-term memory proceeds largely on the basis of rehearsal‚ the repetition

“Consider the extent to which short term factors are now far more important than long term factors in shaping voter behaviour” Both short and long term factors unarguably play a crucial role in the voting behaviour of the electorate. However there is evidence to suggest that during the last decade the effect of long term factors has diminished considerably while the influence of short term factors has increased. By examining and deconstructing various long and short term factors we can examine their

The Great War on the Western Front was a static war. In order to end the war faster the British needed to open a new front to try and tie down troops of Germany or one of its allies. Many of these attempts to open up a new front were made in the Near and Middle East. The campaign at Gallipoli‚ where ANZAC troops landed in 1915‚ failed miserably and after early successes Indian divisions also suffered defeats in Mesopotamia against the Ottomans. In search for a new way to break open the war the British

Memory Storage There are two types of storage that consist in our brain‚ which are short and long term memory. Short term memory involves “rehearsal and chunking” (Schacter et al.‚ 2012)‚ while long term consists of “encoding and retrieval of past memories” (Schacter et al.‚ 2012). I strongly believe that short term memories can lead into long term memories‚ but only if the human right frontal lobe‚ hippocampus‚ and the sensory region works together. Do you remember the time you were in class and
