Multi-Store Model And Working Memory

1. Differences

1.1. Working Memory Model proposes that STM is more active than that of Multi-store Model STM.

1.2. Working Memory Model only describes short term memory while the Multi-Store Model describes both short and long term.

1.3. Working memory proposes a larger STM capacity than Multi-store Model

1.4. Multi-store Model focuses more on processes (encoding, retrieval,storage) than Working Memory

2. By Quiron & Jeremy

3. Similar

3.1. Both are simplistic models

3.2. Both are backed by studies

3.3. Both support the presence of a store that is short-term & holds visual & spatial memory

3.4. Both models propose that memory can be transferred and retrieved out of LTM

3.5. Both do not fully emphasize interaction between different stores
