1st March - Recap of Multi-store model

Although Robin clearly did an excellent job in taking you through the Multi-Store model of memory, it seems that you hadn't got quite as far through it as I'd hoped, so we spent most of today recapping the basic principles.

You should be able to describe what a model is, what the multi-store model is, talk about the components of sensory memory (iconic, echoic and haptic) *and* describe the Sperling study and the later variation.

Homework was to research flashbulb memories, and answer the question: Do flashbulb memories support the concept of a multi-store model of memory?
