The Working Memory Model
Fichas del conjunto (10)
- 1Who proposed the WMM and what does it explain?Baddeley and Hitch (1974) proposed the WMM which explains the short-term memory.
- 2What are the four key components to the WMM?
- 3What does the central executive do?The CE is responsible for the whole system. It directs attention to particular tasks.
The data arrives from the LTM or sensory register.
The CE has a limited capacity and cannot store information. - 4Outline the coding and capacity of the Central Executive and illustrate with a study where applicable.Coding - Any
Capacity - Limited
Baddeley (1996) = Pps found it difficult to generate lists of random numbers while switching between pressing numbers and letters. - 5What does the phonological loop do? Also, what is the articulatory control process?The PL Holds acoustic information usually in the form of words. It is located in the inner-ear.
The articulatory control process is like an inner-voice, rehearsing the info held in the PL. - 6Give an example of a task that would activate the phonological loopHaving to remember a 7 digit number.
- 7What is the visuo-spatial scratchpad?The VSS stores visual and spatial information. It also has a limited capacity and duration and consists of...
a) Visual cache - Stores info about form and colour.
b) Inner scribe - Deals with and stores info about spatial relationships and arrangements of objects. - 8Outline the coding and capacity of the Phonological Loop
- 9Give an example of a task which would activate the visuo-spatial scratchpad.Getting from one room to another.
Counting the number of windows in your house. - 10What is the episodic buffer?The EB is an extra storage system that has a limited capacity.
It integrates info from the previous 3 stores and also maintains a sense of time sequencing, somewhat recording events happening. It sends information to the LTM.
