Baddeley and Hitch (1974) developed an alternative model of short-term memory which they called the working memory model. The working memory model consists of four components. The central executive which controls and co-ordinates the operation of two subsystems‚ the phonological loop and the visuo-spatial sketchpad. The central executive controls attention and coordinates the actions of the other components‚ it can briefly store information‚ but has a limited capacity. The phonological loop consists

simultaneously. The frontal lobe holds new data in short term memory. Much of this information is filtered‚ dismissed and never stored. However‚ if this information is work second consideration‚ it is routed to and held in the hippocampus where if it is deemed important it is organized and indexed by the hippocampus and stored in the cortex. Our goal is to make information relevant enough to the student for it to be processed and stored in long term memory. Not only does physical movement give the

experiment’s results have shown that the participants had no major difficulty in retaining 6 and 9 digit information……….. Measures of working memory capacity reflect both memory processes and executive attention‚ whereas traditional measures of short-term memory reflect primarily memory processes such as grouping‚ chunking‚ and rehearsal. In the digit-span task‚ the participants were shown a list of digits‚ and afterwards were asked to recall them in order by writing down their answers on a sheet

Every person develops a different stage of memory. Sensory memory is memory that is lost within a second. Short-term memory is memory that is lost in 12 to 30 seconds. Long-term memory is “information retained indefinitely although some may be difficult to retrieve” (Ciccarelli‚ White‚ 2013). Those are some the basics behind the word memory and a brief summary of chapter 6. The term that I will mainly be discussing within this paper is apart of the sensory memory. “The first stage of memory‚

Intelligence Scale for Adults–Fourth Edition (Wechsler‚ 2008). The total digit score‚ which is a composite of the child’s forward and backward spans‚ is a measure of working memory. The forward digit span task is a commonly used measure of immediate verbal short-term memory‚ whereas the backward digit span task is often used as a measure of executive attention (Ramirez et al.‚ 2012). During these tasks participants were instructed to verbally repeat a series of digits that were read out loud by the examiner
