Experiment
• I am going to show you a trigram (3 consonants), I want you to look at them and then count backwards in 5s from the number I give you. I will then ask you to write the trigram down, after a timed period.

Peterson and Peterson (1959)
• Using your text books on p. 83 complete the table in your booklet.
• How do our results compare to theirs?

Peterson and Peterson 1959• Aim: To investigate the duration of short-term memory.
• Procedure: A lab experiment was conducted in which 24 participants (psychology students) had to recall trigrams (meaningless three-consonant syllables, e.g. TGH). To prevent rehearsal participants were asked to count backwards in threes or fours from a specified random number until they saw a red light appear. This is known as the Brown Peterson technique. Participants were asked to recall trigrams after intervals of 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 or 18 seconds.
• Results: The longer the interval delay the less trigrams were recalled. Participants were able to recall 80% of trigrams after a 3 seconds delay. However, after 18 seconds less than 10% of trigrams were recalled correctly.
• Conclusion: Short-term memory has a limited duration when rehearsal is prevented. It is thought that this information is lost from short-term memory from trace decay.

Factors affecting the duration of STM
• Read through the texts on p. 83-84
• Summarise each factor into one sentence, add to the page in your booklet
![Page 25: Duration of STM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56813392550346895d9aa421/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Factors affection duration
• Rehearsal – Helps things stay longer in the STM, without rehearsal it is quickly lost
• Deliberate intention to recall – Unless we are trying to remember the information it is lost within seconds
• Amount of info to be retained – as with capacity, it is the number of chunks that are important not the number of letters.
