wmm

• baddeley and hitch developed the working memory model
• wmm - the stm is an active store with different subsections
• central executive - limited capacity and controls the slave systems
• phonological loop holds the articulatory prcess and the phonological store
• phonoloigcal loop - holds speech based info
• phonological store - the inner ear
• articulatory prcess - inner voice - rehearses info by repeating it
• visio spatial sketchpad - temporary storage of visual and spatial info
• visio spatial sketchpad - temporary storage of visual and spatial info
• episodic buffer - stores info from other subsections and integrates it
• wmm was based on the results of interference tasks
• support of wmm - shallice and warrington - kf - damaged articulatory loop but intact vssp
• support wmm - gathercole and baddeley - asked to complete tasks - performed better when tasks used seperate systems
• crit wmm - simplistic and vague
• crit wmm - only deals with stm
• crit wmm - lab studies are most of the support which lacks ecological validity
