  2. Working memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_memory

    Baddeley and Hitch's model of working memory. In 1974 Baddeley and Hitch [11] introduced the multicomponent model of working memory.The theory proposed a model containing three components: the central executive, the phonological loop, and the visuospatial sketchpad with the central executive functioning as a control center of sorts, directing info between the phonological and visuospatial ...

    Baddeley's model of the phonological loop. The phonological loop (or articulatory loop) as a whole deals with sound or phonological information.It consists of two parts: a short-term phonological store with auditory memory traces that are subject to rapid decay and an articulatory rehearsal component (sometimes called the articulatory loop) that can revive the memory traces.

  4. Worked-example effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worked-example_effect

    The worked-example effect is a learning effect predicted by cognitive load theory. [1] [full citation needed] Specifically, it refers to improved learning observed when worked examples are used as part of instruction, compared to other instructional techniques such as problem-solving [2] [page needed] and discovery learning.

  5. Encoding (memory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoding_(memory)

    [6] [7] Baddeley's model of working memory suggests that visual information is stored in the visuo-spatial sketchpad. [4] The visuo-spatial sketchpad is connected to the central executive, which is a key area of working memory. The amygdala is another complex structure that has an important role in visual encoding. It accepts visual input in ...

  6. Dual process theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_process_theory

    In cognitive psychology, attention and working memory have also been conceptualized as relying on two distinct processes. [3] Whether the focus be on social psychology or cognitive psychology, there are many examples of dual process theories produced throughout the past. The following just show a glimpse into the variety that can be found.

  7. Nelson Cowan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Cowan

    Cowan's theoretical model [3] [10] addresses key puzzles in information processing using a new approach in which there are two aspects of working memory: the activated portion of long-term memory, which includes rapidly-learned information limited only by decay and interference among similar features and, within this activated portion, a focus ...

  8. Unitary theories of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_theories_of_memory

    In 1974, Baddeley and Hitch [5] introduced and made popular the multicomponent model of working memory.This theory proposes a central executive that, among other things, is responsible for directing attention to relevant information, suppressing irrelevant information and inappropriate actions, and for coordinating cognitive processes when more than one task must be done at the same time.

  9. Procedural memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_memory

    Procedural memory is a type of implicit memory (unconscious, long-term memory) which aids the performance of particular types of tasks without conscious awareness of these previous experiences. Procedural memory guides the processes we perform, and most frequently resides below the level of conscious awareness.
