Baddeley’s Model of Short Term or “Working” Memory
[ send me this essay ]
This 12 page report discusses Alan Baddeley’s working memory model (published with Gregory Hitch in 1974). According to the model, working memory consists of three components: a phonological (articulatory) loop that is responsible for speech-based information, a visuospatial sketch pad that is responsible for visual images, and a central executive which integrates information from the two other structures in conjunction with information from long term memory. In his model of working memory, Baddeley demonstrated that those multiple components of working memory serve as the mechanisms for the temporary maintenance of information. The central executive also plays a role in planning and controlling behavior. What Baddeley ultimately demonstrates, both through his model and his many other contributions in the field, is what an important role memory plays in the day-to-day lives of human beings. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
