Working Memory Model and Phonological Loop

What is the purpose of the Landry and Bartling (2011) experiment?

• To investigate the influence of articulatory suppression on recall

• To test the visuospatial sketchpad in the Working Memory Model

• To compare the recall of phonologically similar and dissimilar letters

• To examine the effect of dual task technique on visual processing

How many participants were involved in the experiment?

• 34

• 30

• 10

• 7

What task did the experimental group perform during the recall of letters?

• Repeating numbers '1' and '2'

• Writing the letters in the correct order

• Recalling visually similar letters

• Listening to auditory stimuli

What was the mean percent of accurate recall in the control group?

• 76%

• 45%

• 13%

• 14%

What does the study support in terms of the Working Memory Model?

• Articulatory suppression prevents rehearsal in the phonological loop

• Dual task technique enhances visual and spatial processing

• The visuospatial sketchpad is more important than the phonological loop

• Repeating numbers improves recall of visually similar letters
