Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Psychology – Cognition, grade: A, University of Abertay Dundee (School of Health and Social Sciences), course: Advanced Social and Cognitive Psychology, language: English, abstract: Early memory-models explained memory as a rather linear process of receiving sensory information, passing it on to short-term memory and later to long-term memory. To widen explanations of memory, Baddeley and Hitch (1974) proposed their working memory model (WMM) offering an interacting link between sensory storages and long-term memory.
Working memory (WM) can be defined as control-system with limited processing and storing-capacity, and WMM consists of phonological-loop (PL), visuo-spatial sketchpad (VSS), central-executive (CE), and episodic-buffer (EB). In the following, these WMM-subsystems will be shortly described to then present and discuss evidence for each subsystem. Finally, the overall model will be evaluated, and practical applications presented.
