  • Q1
    Which of the following are likely to be stored in episodic long-term memory?
    memories of events that have happened to us at various times, involving other people and places
    our knowledge of what words mean
    memories of our skilled actions, such as playing football
    memories for factual information
    30s
  • Q2
    'Time stamped' and 'consciously searched' refer to which type of long-term memory?
    procedural
    semantic
    episodic
    very long term memory
    30s
  • Q3
    'Brings together different types of information into a single memory' is a description of what component in the working memory model?
    phonological loop
    visuo-spatial sketch pad
    episodic buffer
    central executive
    30s
  • Q4
    The case of KF supports the Working Memory Model because he had:
    a poor STM but an intact LTM
    no ability to learn new skills
    a near normal ST, but could not recall events from a long time ago
    poor STM for verbal material, but near-normal STM for visual information
    30s
  • Q5
    The phonological loop is made up of two components. These are:
    STM & LTM
    the phonological store and the inner ear
    the central executive and long term store
    the procedural store and episodic store
    30s
  • Q6
    Which component of WMM links working memory with LTM?
    STM
    episodic buffer
    phonological loop
    central executive
    30s
  • Q7
    What type of brain scans were used by Tulving to find out which parts of the brain were responsible for episodic and semantic memory?
    PET
    EEG
    MRI
    fMRI
    30s
  • Q8
    The fact that there are different types of LTM, suggests what about the Multi-Store Model of memory?
    it has high ecological validity
    it has low ecological validity
    its too complicated
    it's too simplistic
    30s
  • Q9
    Which type of LTM contains our knowledge of the world?
    procedural
    auditory
    semantic
    episodic
    30s
  • Q10
    What type of LTM is our memory for skills and actions?
    procedural
    semantic
    knowledge
    echoic
    30s
  • Q11
    Which of these differences between semantic memory and episodic memory is accurate?
    semantic memories tend to be taught and episodic memories are not
    semantic memories are more vivid than episodic

    semantic memories last longer than episodic

    30s
  • Q12
    Which case study provides evidence for there being different types of LTM?
    HM
    KC
    KF
    Clive Wearing
    30s
  • Q13
    What is the role of the central executive?
    to integrate information from the other components
    to rehearse auditory info
    to stay in the middle
    to direct info to the slave systems
    30s
  • Q14
    What is the role of the phonological loop?
    to direct info to the slave systems
    to rehearse auditory info
    it deals with auditory info
    to work as the inner eye
    30s
  • Q15
    What is a weakness of the WMM?
    it has not been tested sufficiently
    it doesn't take into account all sensory info
    it only focuses on STM and doesn't explain how STM moves to LTM
    it has no supporting evidence
    30s
