Working Memory Model
Cards in this deck (4)
- 1Working Memory Model (WMM)An explanation created by Baddeley and Hitch (1974) that sees short term memory as an active store for multiple information simultaneously.
- 2Central Executive (CE)- Oversees and co-ordinates the components of working memory.
- Processes information and directs information to different systems and collects responses.
- It's limited in capacity and can only deal with one strand of information at a time - 3Phonological Loop (PL)- Deals with auditory information and the order of information
- Baddeley divided the PL into two sub parts:
Primary acoustic store (stores words heard)
Articulatory process (allows sub-vocal repetition) - 4Visuo-spacial Sketchpad (VSS)- Deals with visual information and physical relationship of items
- VSS helps people navigate around and interact with the physical environment.
- Logie suggests sub-dividing the store into visual cache which deals with material in the form of colour and inner scribe which handles spatial relationships and transfers information to the CE
