16
Q

how can hm support msmm

A

hm underwent a surgery for for epilepsy and as a result could no longer form new memeorys, meaning he had trouble forming ltm and had impared function in his stm. he could rember memorys in his ltm from before 27 but after that only had a sensory memory
t/f this increases the validity of the msmm as it shows hoe memory has seperate stores

17
Q

what is a weakness of msmm

A

reductionist

18
Q

how is it being reductionist a weakness

A

is too simplistic of an explination for memory as it underplays the interconnections between stores
t/f this theory of memeory is too simplistic thus decreasing its validity

19
Q

what is anouther strength od msmm

A

supporting evidance from chapman

20
Q

what did chapman find to support msmm

A

when people are given a task and asked to recall immediately after- show a unique brain wave pattern wich is different from recalling things from ltm
t/f this supports the idea of seperate stores of memory sm and ltm, increasing the validity of the thoery

21
Q

what is anouther weakness

A

alternate theories

22
Q

why is alternate theories a weakness

A

their are other theories such as the wmm that explain memory, that are more specific in explaining connection between stores in memory
t/f other explinations decreases the validity of the msmm explination of memory
