C raik and Lockhart’s levels of processing (LoP) model of memory, including input, capacity, outcomes6 objectives
  • Understand Craik and Lockhart’s levels of processing (LoP) model of memory, which includes aspects such as input, capacity, duration, and access, noting that storage results from processing.
  • Identify the different types of processing in Craik and Lockhart’s levels of processing model: structural processing (focusing on visual features), phonemic processing (focusing on auditory features), and semantic processing (focusing on meaning).
  • Present arguments supporting Craik and Lockhart’s levels of processing (LoP) model of memory, including evidence from the named study: levels of processing (specifically Craik and Tulving's second experiment).
  • Discuss arguments against Craik and Lockhart’s levels of processing (LoP) model of memory, particularly its inability to account for the limited capacity of memory.
  • Explore Craik and Lockhart’s levels of processing (LoP) model in relation to forgetting, specifically the encoding specificity principle, which states that memory recall is enhanced when the conditions during recall match those during encoding.
  • Apply knowledge of Craik and Lockhart’s levels of processing (LoP) model of memory and forgetting to new situations.
