In their paper‚ Baddeley and Hitch (1974) proposed a working memory model comprised of three basic components. The central executive was the system that dealt with decision making‚ reasoning and coordination of the other two subsidiary systems. The two subsidiary systems that were initially proposed included the visuospatial sketchpad and articulatory loop. The visuospatial sketchpad was thought to be involved in the transitory storage and manipulation of visual and spatial information‚ while a similar

The Working Memory Model (WMM) is a theory by Baddeley and Hitch in 1974. The theory replaces the idea that there is a single Short Term Memory (STM) from Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968)‚ it suggests that the STM is a flexible multi-component system. The WMM suggests that the STM is controlled by the Central Executive (CE) which controls attention‚ planning and synthesising information. The Central Executive is a flexible system which means it can process audio‚ visual and sound information‚ it also

Position Paper #2 How would I prove that my memory or reasoning processes are reliable? There really is no good way to answer this question. My first thought was‚ well that should be easy‚ because I can prove my memory is reliable by the fact that I remember where class is every day that I show up. If I can remember where the classroom is‚ that must show my memory is reliable. But then I realized that I’m relying on a memory to come up with that example. This makes the question seem like a paradox

they can help us improve our memory. First‚ to consider the role of mental images. Forming mental images simply means thinking in pictures. Spoors et al. (2011) suggest that it works best if the images we form are large‚ colourful and bizarre‚ as we tend to remember distinctive items better than everyday items. The mental image will give us another cue when we come to recall the information. The effort we make to form the image will also help to fix it in our memory. Spoors et al. (2011) give an

Long-Term Memory Short-term memory differs from long-term memory in two fundamental ways‚ with only short-term memory demonstrating temporal decay and capacity limits. Long-term memory however‚ can store vast amounts of information and is permanent. Short-term memory gives the ability for the human brain to keep information in the mind for a very short period of time‚ such as remembering a phone number long enough until you are able to dial it on our phones.
