  1. Working Memory From the Psychological and Neurosciences Perspectives: A Review

    Introduction. Working memory has fascinated scholars since its inception in the 1960's (Baddeley, 2010; D'Esposito and Postle, 2015).Indeed, more than a century of scientific studies revolving around memory in the fields of psychology, biology, or neuroscience have not completely agreed upon a unified categorization of memory, especially in terms of its functions and mechanisms (Cowan ...

  3. Working Memory Underpins Cognitive Development, Learning, and Education

    What is Working Memory? An Introduction and Review. Working memory is the small amount of information that can be held in mind and used in the execution of cognitive tasks, in contrast with long-term memory, the vast amount of information saved in one's life. Working memory is one of the most widely-used terms in psychology. It has often been connected or related to intelligence, information ...

  4. Working Memory

    Summary. Working memory is an aspect of human memory that permits the maintenance and manipulation of temporary information in the service of goal-directed behavior. Its apparently inelastic capacity limits impose constraints on a huge range of activities from language learning to planning, problem-solving, and decision-making.

Simulations of a dynamic field model showing an increase in working memory (WM) capacity over development from infancy (left column) through childhood (middle column) and into adulthood (right column) as the strength of neural interactions is increased. The graphs in the top row (a, d, g) show how activation ( z -axis) evolves through ...

  6. The Cognitive Neuroscience of Working Memory

    For over 50 years, psychologists and neuroscientists have recognized the importance of a "working memory" to coordinate processing when multiple goals are active, and to guide behavior with information that is not present in the immediate environment. In recent years, psychological theory and cognitive neuroscience data have converged on ...

  13. Working Memory Development: A 50-Year Assessment of Research and

    What is now termed working memory has interested me since I read sundry things: a technical summary of research on dreams in 1969, just after high school; Hebb (1949) and a little of William James' work, in college; and other cognitive and developmental research. By working memory, I mean the small amount of information held in mind and used in cognitive tasks.

    The human brain regions responsible for working memory content are also used to gauge the quality, or uncertainty, of memories, a team of scientists has found, uncovering how these neural responses allow us to act and make decisions based on how sure we are about our memories. New Study Shows the Extent We Trust Our Memory in Decision-Making.

  18. Cognitive neuroscience perspective on memory: overview and summary

    Working memory. Working memory is primarily associated with the prefrontal and posterior parietal cortex (Sarnthein et al., 1998; Todd and Marois, 2005).Working memory is not localized to a single brain region, and research suggests that it is an emergent property arising from functional interactions between the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the rest of the brain (D'Esposito, 2007).

  19. Working Memory Model In Psychology (Baddeley & Hitch)

    The Working Memory Model, proposed by Baddeley and Hitch in 1974, describes short-term memory as a system with multiple components. It comprises the central executive, which controls attention and coordinates the phonological loop (handling auditory information) and the visuospatial sketchpad (processing visual and spatial information).

  20. 10 Influential Memory Theories and Studies in Psychology

    An influential theory of memory known as the multi-store model was proposed by Richard Atkinson and Richard Shiffrin in 1968. This model suggested that information exists in one of 3 states of memory: the sensory, short-term and long-term stores. Information passes from one stage to the next the more we rehearse it in our minds, but can fade ...
