The Central Executive controls attention and coordinates the other components of the Working Memory Model
The Central Executive controls attention and coordinates other components.
The Phonological Loop handles verbal information.
What type of information does the Visuospatial Sketchpad process?
Visual and spatial
The Working Memory Model was proposed by Baddeley and Hitch.
Match the component with its function:
Central Executive ↔️ Controls attention, coordinates other components
Phonological Loop ↔️ Handles verbal information
Visuospatial Sketchpad ↔️ Processes visual and spatial information
The Central Executive coordinates the Phonological Loop and Visuospatial Sketchpad when solving a mental math problem.
Order the components of the Working Memory Model according to their roles:
1️⃣ Central Executive
2️⃣ Phonological Loop
3️⃣ Visuospatial Sketchpad
The Central Executive controls attention and allocates resources to different tasks.
What are the two subsystems of the Phonological Loop?
Phonological store and articulatory control system
When reading, the Central Executive manages attention, the Phonological Loop retains phrases, and the Visuospatial Sketchpad helps visualize the text.
What is the primary function of the Central Executive in the Working Memory Model?
Directing attention
The Phonological Loop stores and rehearses verbal information.
Give an example of a task where the Central Executive coordinates the Phonological Loop and Visuospatial Sketchpad.

The Episodic Buffer integrates information from the Phonological Loop, Visuospatial Sketchpad, and long-term memory into a single episodic representation.
The Central Executive controls attention and coordinates other components of the Working Memory Model.
The Working Memory Model was proposed by Baddeley and Hitch.
The Phonological Loop handles verbal information through the phonological store and the articulatory control system.
The Visuospatial Sketchpad processes visual and spatial information in the Working Memory Model.
Order the components of the Working Memory Model based on their primary functions:
1️⃣ Central Executive: Controls attention
2️⃣ Phonological Loop: Handles verbal information
3️⃣ Visuospatial Sketchpad: Processes visual and spatial information
When solving a mental math problem, the Central Executive coordinates the Phonological Loop to rehearse numbers and the Visuospatial Sketchpad to visualize the problem.
The Working Memory Model includes a component called the Episodic Buffer for integrating information from different sources.
Who proposed the Working Memory Model?
Baddeley and Hitch
The Working Memory Model describes how information is temporarily held and manipulated
