theory it is important to examine information processing in human mind which is described in Figure 7.13. It is generally believed that there are separate and sequential store houses in human memory where information is kept temporarily before further processing: a sensory store‚ a short-term store‚ and long-term store. Sensory Store: Storage where all data comes to us through our senses; however‚ the senses do not transmit the whole image like the camera does. Sensory Input is a piece of information

Outline and evaluate the ‘WMM’ (12marks) The working memory model (WMM) has four components. The central executive controls and monitors the operation of the other 3 components. It also allocates attention. The phonological loop is sub-divided into 2 smaller components‚ the articulatory control system‚ where information is rehearsed sub vocally or in the inner voice and the phonological store where speech is held for a very brief duration in the inner ear. The third component is the visuo spatial

CHAPTER 2 ( Active Learner & Learning Skill) 1. There are 7 characteristics of active learners : a. Read with purpose of understanding and remembering. They set goals before they read and check their understanding‚ they also can explain the main points and know that they have understood what they have read after they finish reading. b. Reflect on information and think critically. Being reflective is important because it means that you are thinking about the information. In other words‚ you may

The working memory model consists of four main parts‚ phonological loop‚ visual spatial sketch pad‚ episodic buffer and the central executive. The central executive controls the three subsystems in addition to this the WMM represents Short Term memory (STM) and shows us multiple ways of information being transferred into the Long Term Memory (LTM). The Phonological Loop of the WMM is called the inner voice‚ this holds verbal information in a speech based form‚ and this however has a limited capacity

Previous research has argued that children can have a weak memory‚ stating that this makes them unsuitable eyewitnesses‚ however‚ there is also evidence which argues to the contrary. Children have a relatively simple model of memory‚ information is processed in working memory and this processing determines its transfer to long term memory. When children at 5 years of age took part in the digit span task‚ they were able to remember 4 or 5 digits; this increased to 6 digits at 9 years of age (Baddeley

Irrelevant Speech Effect The irrelevant speech effect is the impairment if performance in memory tasks as a result of irrelevant background speech (Colle & Welsh‚ 1976; Jones & Macken‚ 1993; LeCompte‚ Neely & Wilson‚ 1997). Previous research has found that irrelevant speech impairs serial recall tasks‚ so our experiment sets out

MENTALROBICS OF REPETITION: EXERCISING THE MEMORY AND LEARNING THROUGH REPEATING ALPHABET BACKWARDS Pecasales‚ Justine Jamella T. ABSRACT This study tested if repetition is a way of exercising our memory and learning. By means of reviewing again the alphabet in a reverse order‚ we examined a 17 years old college student of BS Psychology 2-4 from Polytechnic University of the Philippines. She was tested whether repetition is an exercise to her memory and learning about alphabet backwards. I predicted
