2.4 Working Memory Model
  1. Working memory model was suggested by Baddeley and Hitch (1974) to replace the idea of a unitary STM store. Suggests a system involving active processing and storage.
    1. Central Executive
      1. Has a supervisory role, acting as a filter. It determines which information is attended to. Allocates tasks for the other systems.
        1. Has a limited capacity and only deals with one piece of information at a time.
        2. Phonological Loop
          1. Deals with auditory information and preserves the order in which information arrives.
            1. Subdivided into two stores
              1. Phonological store
                1. Stores the words you hear
                2. Articulatory Process
                  1. Allows for maintenance rehearsal
              2. Visuo-Spatial Sketchpad
                1. Temporary memory system responsible for holding visual and spatial information
                  1. Visual cache
                    1. Stores visual data about form and colour
                    2. Inner scribe
                      1. Records the arrangement of objects in the visual field.
                    3. Episodic Buffer
                      1. Acts as a backup store for information, integrating the visual, spatial and verbal information and maintaining time sequencing.
                        1. Links the working memory to long term memory and wide cognitive processes.
                        2. Evaluation
                          1. Strengths:
                            1. Dual task performance. Studies prove the separate existence of the visuo spatial sketchpad. While carrying out a visual and verbal task at the same time their performance was similar to if they carried it out separately
                              1. Clinical evidence from KF study. KF suffered brain damage from a motorcycle accident which damaged his STM. His impairment was mainly for verbal information while his visual store was largely unaffected.
                              2. Weaknesses:
                                1. Little known of the nature of the Central Executive. Needs to be more clearly specified than just being 'attention'. It is an unsatisfactory component which challenges the integrity of WMM.
                                  1. Evidence to suggest the visuo-spatial scratchpad is not unitary but divided into two.
