  1. The recall of information from working memory: insights from behavioural and chronometric perspectives

    The present research also suggests that while the distinction between processing and memory in working memory span tests may be a useful research heuristic, these task components may functionally overlap for participants, so that processing activities and target memory words may actually become intertwined. ... Working memory span and ...

  2. 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).

  3. Working Memory From the Psychological and Neurosciences Perspectives: A

    An Embedded-Processes Model of Working Memory. Notwithstanding the widespread use of the multicomponent working memory model, Cowan (1999, 2005) proposed the embedded-processes model that highlights the roles of long-term memory and attention in facilitating working memory functioning.Arguing that the Baddeley and Hitch (1974) model simplified perceptual processing of information presentation ...

  4. The Simple Memory Span Experiment: A Behavioral Analysis

    Researchers conducted memory span experiments in the earliest stages of psychological science (e.g., Ebbinghaus, 1885/1964). The fundamental metric of memory span data is the list length of unitary target stimuli such as single digits, letters, or common words that a behaver can correctly recall in order 50% (commonly) of the time after being exposed to a single, relatively brief exposure of ...

  5. Can short-term memory be trained?

    A second long-distance runner, D.D., was instructed to use the same strategy S.F. had developed, and his span also increased substantially (for a detailed analysis of D.D.'s recall strategies, see Ericsson & Staszewski, 1989; Staszewski, 1990; Yoon, Ericsson, & Donatelli, 2018).Other studies have also demonstrated that digit span expands when participants use other elaborate encoding and ...

  7. Why does memory span improve with age? A review of the evidence for two

    A revised model is proposed, based on three factors. The first is a speech perception system and phonological store; the second is a speech output system which can be used for sublexical segmentation and later rehearsal. The third system is long-term memory with links to both the speech perception and speech output systems.

  8. Why does memory span improve with age? A review of ...

    Abstract Evidence for two major hypotheses that attempt to explain the development in memory span with age is reviewed: the identification time hypothesis and the rehearsal hypothesis. The rehearsal hypothesis is also strongly related to the recent application of the working memory model to memory development. In this model, rehearsal is assumed to occur from an extremely young age. This ...

  9. Aging and Verbal Memory Span: A Meta-Analysis

    Abstract. Using Brinley plots, this meta-analysis provides a quantitative examination of age differences in eight verbal span tasks. The main conclusions are these: (a) there are age differences in all verbal span tasks; (b) the data support the conclusion that working memory span is more age sensitive than short-term memory span; and (c) there is a linear relationship between span of younger ...

The Memory Span experiment included five different types of stimuli, which were numbers, letters that sound different, letters that sound the same, short words, and long words.

  12. PDF The Simple Memory Span Experiment: A Behavioral Analysis

    The simple memory span procedure can be viewed as (a) an experiment evaluating the effect of set size, the number of individual stimulus items (e.g., digits) the subject attempts to repeat in order of presentation; or (b) as an assessment in which an examiner aims to assess an individuals span limit.

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

    Working Memory: The Past 64 Years. There are several modern beginnings for the working memory concept. Hebb (1949) had an outlook on temporary memory that was more neurologically based than the earlier concept of primary memory of James (1890).He spoke of ideas as mediated by assemblies of cells firing in a specific pattern for each idea or concept, and only a few cell assemblies would be ...

    The goal of this research is to examine the differences of short-term memory capacity between intellectually gifted, general education, and students receiving special education services.

  19. Memory span: a review of the literature.

    Memory span may be defined functionally as "the ability of an individual to reproduce immediately, after one presentation, a series of discrete stimuli in their original order." A structural definition is more difficult since memory span involves processes of attention, associability, imagery, and memory. Variation in memory span with material and sense organ may result from inaccuracies in ...

  20. The use of standardised short-term and working memory tests in aphasia

    Introduction. The presence of short-term and working memory impairments in aphasia is ubiquitous (Martin & Gupta, 2004; Murray, 2012a; Schuell, Jenkins, & Jimenez-Pabon, 1964).Short-term memory (STM) involves storage of information for a brief period of time, usually a few seconds, in a relatively unprocessed state (Baddeley, 2012; Cowan, 2010).This information could be auditory or visual and ...

  21. Working Memory Capacity Depends on Attention Control, but Not ...

    Working memory and attention are interrelated constructs that are sometimes even considered indistinguishable. Since attention is not a uniform construct, it is possible that different types of attention affect working memory capacity differently. To clarify this issue, we investigated the relationship between working memory capacity and various components of attention. The sample consisted of ...

    Autobiographical Account of Miller (1956). The retrospective account offered by Miller (1989) indicates that the 1956 article was based on a public address that he had to be cajoled into giving to the Eastern Psychological Association. He did not think that his two lines of research, on absolute judgments and memory span, provided the basis for a coherent hour-long address, and initially ...
