The Working Memory Model QUIZ

Which component of the Multistore model does the Working Memory model (WMM) replace?

• Sensory Memory
• Short-term memory (STM)
• Long-term Memory (LTM)

If two tasks make use of the same component (in working memory) can the task be performed successfully?

• Yes
• No

Choose the correct list of the working memory components.

• Central Executive, Visui-spatial sketch pad, Episodic buffer, Sound component
• Central Executive, Visui-spatial sketch pad, Episodic buffer, Phonological Loop
• The Decider, Visui-spatial sketch pad, Episodic buffer, Phonological Loop
• Central Executive, Vision, Episodic buffer, Phonological Loop

What is the correct definition of the Episodic Buffer ?

• Temporary storage system that allows info from other systems to be combined with info from the LTM.
• Permanent storage system that allows info from other systems to be combined with info from the LTM
• Temporary storage system that allows info from other systems to be combined with info from sensory memory

What two component does the Phonological Loop consist of ?

• The ‘inner sound’ & The ‘inner ear’ 
• The ‘inner sound’& The ‘inner voice’ 
• The ‘inner voice’& The ‘inner ear’ 
• MAGIC

Which research evidence supports the Working Memory Model (WMM) ?

• Baddeley & Hitch (1974)
• Robbins (1996) & Milgram (1972)
• Baddeley & Hitch (1974) & Williams (1996)
• Baddeley & Hitch (1974) & Robbins (1996)

Which of these is a true evaluation point of the WMM?

• The WMM consists of too many components for it to be supported by research
• There are alternative approaches to explaining memory. E.G MSM 
• The WMM does not fit into the MSM
• The WMM does not account for mulitasking in everyday life
