Match List - I with List - II and indicate your answer using the codes given below :
| List - I (Psychologists) | List - II (Memory Concepts) |
|---|---|
| p. George Miller | 1. Three memory system |
| q. Atkinson and Shiffrin | 2. Working memory |
| r. Bartlett | 3. Magical number \(\gt\) ± 2 |
| s. Alan Badley | 4. Constructive memory |
Codes : p q r s
Answer: D
The correct matching is p-3, q-1, r-4, s-2. George Miller gave the magical number seven plus or minus two for the span of short-term memory, Atkinson and Shiffrin proposed the three memory system (sensory, short-term, long-term), Bartlett showed that memory is constructive, and Alan Baddeley proposed working memory.
The other codes give working memory to Miller or the three-store model to Bartlett, which is wrong. The booklet prints the magical number with a greater-than sign, which is a misprint for the usual seven plus or minus two.
