the function of memory
to encode, store and retrieve relevant information that supports adaptive behavior
working memory
in the moment access to goal-relevant information
central executive
→ phonological loop
→ visuo-spatial sketchpad
long-term memory
long term storage of lots of potentially relevant information
implicit
explicit
→ semantic
→ episodic
digit span
the largest number of items a person can reliably recall
Baddeley and Hitch model of working memory
a theoretical framework that describes working memory as having multiple components, including the central executive, phonological loop, and visuo-spatial sketchpad, each serving distinct functions in processing and manipulating information.
episodic buffer
integrates multi-modal information into episodic representations
phonological loop
stores and rehearses verbal and acoustic information
visuo-spatial sketchpad
stores and manipulates visual and spatial information
central executive
primary system for controlling attention and thinking
prefrontal cortex
-selecting relevant information
-inhibiting irrelevant information
-manipulating representations
-sequencing operations
