Q1. Explain one strength and one weakness of the working memory model. (Total 4 marks) One strength is that it explains dual tasu performance. Hitch + Baddley found that participants had difficulty with doing two visual tasus at the same time than doing a visual tverbal task at the same time. This is because two visual tasks are competing for the slave system. Whereas same when doing a visual + verbal task simultaneously there is no competition. This demonstrates that processes visual information. there here is a separate slave system One weakness is that the central executive is too Vague and doesn't really explair any mechanisms taking place in working memory. This is a limitation because Working memory hasn't been fully explained Q2. Three components of the working memory model are the central executive, the phonological loop and the visuo-spatial sketchpad. 5 (Total 6 marks) Briefly outline each of these components. • The central executive is an attentional process that monitors incoming data. It decides how to process the incoming information by allocating relevant. to tasks controls the slave systems thas limited capacity slave systems • The phonological loop is divided into the articulatory control system (allows maintenence rehearsal of acoustic information) and the phonological store stores the words you hear) The Phonological loop processes auditory information limited capacity •The visuo- Spatial shelchoad stores visual + spatial information when required. It is divided into the visual cache...
