WMM

• The coding of episodic buffer is modality free. This means that the coding of episodic buffer is not tied to the sensory modality.
• The coding in the visuospatial sketchpad is visual.
• The coding in the phonological loop is acoustic.
• The coding in central executive is modality free. This means that the coding is not tied to the sensory modality.
• The capacity of the visuospatial sketchpad is 3-4 objects.
• The capacity of the phonological loop is 2 seconds worth of information.
• The capacity of central executive is limited.
• The function of episodic buffer is to provide a temporary store for info received by the central executive and maintain a sense of time frequency.To link LTM to wider cognitive processes such as perception.
• The function of the visuospatial sketch pad is to store visual information and to help with spatial reasoning.
• the function of the phonological loop to hold words(phonological store) and rehearse any words that are currently being considered(by talking to yourself)
• the function of the central executive is to process information from visual spatial sketch pad,phonological loop, from perception and from LTM and then sifts,sorts and combines this information until decisions are reached.
