  1. Sensory Memory and Short-Term (Working) Memory

  2. General Plan • 1960s Many models of memory proposed • Atkinson & Shiffrin (1968)-Modal Model • Sensory Memory • Short-term Memory • Long-term Memory

  3. William James • Primary Memory • Secondary Memory

  4. Atkinson & Shiffrin Model of Memory (1968)

  5. STM Bottleneck Sensory Memory Sensory Memory Long-Term Memory

  6. Properties of the Different Memory Stores

  7. Characteristics of the Memory Stores

  8. Research on the A & S Model • Serial Position Effect • Recency Effect • Kintsch & Buschke (1969) • Behavioral Neuroscience Evidence

  9. Selective Attention (Dichotic Listening Task) • Shadowing • Irrelevant Channel • Cocktail Party Effect - Morray (1959) • Wood and Cowan (1995) • Treisman (1960)

  10. Serial Position Effect Demo

  11. Serial Position Effect Graph Primacy Effect Recency Effect

  12. Rundus (1971)

  13. Questions • How could we test the idea that the last few items are in STS? • How can we test that the primacy effect represents LTS?

  14. Eliminating the Recency Effect

  15. Other Evidence: Kintsch & Bushchke (1969)

  16. Behavioral Neuroscience Evidence for the STM-LTM Distinction • H.M. - Epileptic - Temporal Lobes / Hippocampus - STM ---> LTM disrupted • K.F. - Damage to Left Cerebral Cortex - LTM Normal - STM capacity severely limited

  17. Behavioral Neuroscience Evidence for the STM-LTM Distinction The dog bit the man and the man died. vs. The man the dog bit died.

  18. Evidence Against A & S • More recent research challenges the strict coding distinction • Recency Effect challenged • Neuroscience evidence

  19. Atkinson & Shiffrin Model of Memory (1968)

  20. The Sensory Store

  21. Lightning

  22. Lightning Demo

  23. Lightning Questions

  24. Sensory Memory • Sensory memory or sensory register • Visual, auditory, touch, taste, smell • Relatively raw, unprocessed form

  25. Why Do We Need Sensory Memory? • Stimuli change • Maintain for selection and further processing • Integrate fragments of a stimuli into a single unitary perception

  26. Classic Studies • Sperling (1960) • Averbach & Sperling (1961)
