- the working memory model
- episodic buffer
- Alkhalifa
- patient: severe loss of ltm
- a general store to hold and integrate information from the ce, pl, vss and ltm
- Alkhalifa
- central executive
- "head of the model", controls atteniton
- Desposito et al
- used fMRI scans to show the functioniing of the brain in memory tasks
- verbal and spatial tasks were performed at the same time the prefrontal orrtex was activated
- but not when the tasks were performed seperately
- verbal and spatial tasks were performed at the same time the prefrontal orrtex was activated
- used fMRI scans to show the functioniing of the brain in memory tasks
- recieves sense information and filters them before passing on to subsystems
- limited in capacity (4 items)
- only works at one information at a tiime but switches really fast between different inputs
- visuo-spatial sketchpad
- Baddeley
- dual task to track a moving point of light and to describe the angels on a letter f
- others were asked to do a visual and verbal task together
- the first group was confused and the task wasn't done very well while the ssecond group were able to do both tasks effectively
- this suggests that there are seperate stores for both types of memory

- dual task to track a moving point of light and to describe the angels on a letter f
- processes visual and spatially coded information, "the inner eye"
- visual cache: a passive store of form and colour
- inner scribe: active store holding the relationships between objects in 3d space
- Baddeley
- phonological loop
- processes audiotory coded information
- Trojani et al
- patient(cs)
- cs had brain damage which affected the functioning of his plmbut his vss was left good working order
- this suggests that there are different memory operate differently
- cs had brain damage which affected the functioning of his plmbut his vss was left good working order
- patient(cs)
- primary acoustic: the inner ear, holding words recently heard
- articularly process:the inner voice, holding information via sunvocal repetition
- pl has a limited capacity of what can be said in 2 seconds (word length effect)
- episodic buffer
