Reasoning for Grading

Hello there folks, i recently added the Rating of this article, and i gave it the quality of a start-class article. It's going towards a B at the moment, but needs to be referenced and well wikified/verified in some areas. Let's aim to quote and reference well, and get this to a Featured article.

This is also an important topic, as whilst the majority of it's assumptions were somewhat lacking with biological and neurological evidence, it's still a very important topic in psychology as it heralded much further research into memory and helped develop some other memory models also. That's all for now :-) Your mission, should you choose to accept it is to FA this article's ass off! James S 16:14, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Review

The article gives a nice overview of what the Atkinson-Shuffrin memory model is, but it does not elaborate enough. It would be nice to have the opening in simpler terms. Also, it would not hurt to give more background on Atkinson and Shiffrin. There is a good number of subheadings, but the information under the subheadings is not as in depth as it could be. The information presented should be able to teach someone about the Atkinson-Shiffrin memory model, who has never heard of it before. There are only three references cited at the end of this article. There are numerous places where information could be cited. If the article is to be taken more seriously, there needs to be a lot more sources represented. This article could stand more information for each subheading and more citations. Doing these things can make this article more informative and reliable.

Great points. Such a highly trafficked and important article deserves more attention to detail than it has been given---I research cognitive psychology for a living and I found it tough to read. I'll take a look at it and make it a bit more understandable, well-sourced, and in-depth over the next few days. Adam Blake (talk) 20:55, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Expert help needed

The Atkinson-Shiffrin Model of Memory is mentioned in the article Storage, section short-term memory. However, the text is rather confusing. I don't know enough about A-S memory model to be able to edit it myself, but I hope one of you could help. Please see Talk:Storage. Thank you! Lova Falk talk 18:33, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
