Outline the different stages of the Multi-store model of memory

Firstly, information enters the memory, via the senses, from the environment, into the sensory memory. If this information is paid attention too, it is transfered to the Short term memory. This memory store can hold 5-9 pieces of information for up to 30 seconds. From here, the information can either be outputted via speaking the information or acting on it etc, forgotten via displacement as new information pushes out old information or rehersed to transfer it into the long term memory. This store, it is debated, can hold an infinate amount of information for an infinate amount of time. However, decay can happen here meaning that older information can be forgotten due to lack of rehersal.  When this information is needed for output, this information is retrieved from the long term memory into the short term memory and outputted as stated before. Information travels through the model in a linear fashion and each store is unitary.
