Question

A 2021 study by Wagner et al., which found that one form of this ability could be affected by social appraisal, used several “lures” in a variant of an experimental paradigm named for Deese, Roediger, and McDermott. Frederic Bartlett showed that schemas affect this ability in the “War of the Ghosts” experiment. A “buffer” was added to a three-component model of a form of this faculty (15[1])by Alan (*) Baddeley, who built on the model of Atkinson and Shiffrin. Elizabeth Loftus conducted (10[1])the “lost in the mall” (10[1])experiment to show the potential unreliability of this faculty. George Miller’s magic number “seven plus or minus two” describes the capacity of this faculty’s “short-term” form. For 10 points, name this faculty that involves encoding, storing, and retrieving information in the brain. ■END■
