Overview
The three stores of the multi-store model, long-term memory's capacity, duration and encoding, recall, rehearsal and retrieval, overlearned skills, meaningful information, a criticism of the model and the rugby fly-half reading a defence.

Questions from this subtopic
Each one with the model answer underneath.
- 1
Name the three stores in the multi-store model of memory.
Model answer
The three stores are the short-term sensory store, short-term memory and long-term memory. Atkinson and Shiffrin proposed the model in 1968.
- 2
What is the capacity of long-term memory?
Model answer
Long-term memory has an unlimited capacity. The store holds motor programmes, knowledge and past experiences.
- 3
How long does information last in long-term memory?
Model answer
Information in long-term memory can last a lifetime. Well-learned motor skills such as swimming or cycling are rarely forgotten.
- 4
How is information encoded in long-term memory?
Model answer
Long-term memory encodes mainly by meaning, as a semantic code. Motor skills are stored as motor programmes.
- 5
What is recall?
Model answer
Recall is retrieving stored information from long-term memory without a prompt. A performer recalls a motor programme to produce a skill.
- 6
What is rehearsal?
Model answer
Rehearsal is repeating information while it is held in short-term memory. Enough rehearsal transfers the information into long-term memory.
