Working memory model (Baddeley and Hitch)

STM is not a unitary store
Components of working memory are the Central Executive, the Phonological Loop (Phonological Store and Articulatory Process), the visuo-spatial sketchpad and the episodic buffer
Central executive - directs attention to particular tasks, allocates resources to the other slave systems and has limited capacity
Phonological loop - deals with auditory information
Phonological store - holds words you hear
Articulatory process - holds words that are heard or seen, these words are repeated like an inner voice which is a form of maintenance rehearsal
Visuo-spatial sketchpad - Visual and spatial (relationship between things)
Episodic buffer - added in 2000, holds visual AND acoustic information, is an extra storage system but still has limited capacity
