Proactive interference definition
Old information interferes with learning new information.
Retroactive interference definiton
New information inteferes with old previously stored information
Example of proactive interference
Had a old password, can’t remember the new one
Example of retroactive interference
Has a new password, can’t remember old one
Episodic memory definiton
memory of events or personal experiences
Semantic memory definiton
Memories of facts + knowledge
Procedural memory definition
Skills
Capacity and duration of sensory memory
Large capacity, short duration
Capacity and duration of short term memory
Limited capacity, 18-30 seconds
Capacity and duration of long term memory
Unlimited capacity, lifetime duration
How is information travelled from sensory memory to STM
Attention
Strengths of MSM
Supported by PET scans
Which coding is used for STM
Acoustic (sound)
Which coding is used for LTM
Semantic (meaning)
Who found the serial position effect
Murdock
What is the serial position effect
The tendency to recall more words at the beginning and end of a list
Why does the primacy effect occur?
words at beginning of list had been rehearsed and transferred into LTM
Why does the recency effcect occur?
words still held in STM
Why does murdock support the MSM
It shows STM and LTM are separate stores

Interference definition
When similar information becomes confused
Example of interference
earning new information can make it harder to remember old information.”
