Working Memory Model

Working Memory Model:

• Baddeley and Hitch created the working memory model to explain the short term memory.

The WMM is made up of three key components,

• the first component is the central executive which manages your attention and separates the information you observe into three ‘slave stores’.

•  The second area is the phonological loop which retains language based information.

•  The last is the visual-spatial sketchpad which retains visual and spatial information.
