Thoughts from the long-term memory chair
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 26 (6):734-735 (2003)
| Abstract | With reference to Ruchkins et al.'s framework, this commentary briefly considers the history of working memory, and whether, heuristically, this is a useful concept. A neuropsychologically motivated critique is offered, specifically with regard to the recent trend for working-memory researchers to conceptualise this capacity more as a process than as a set of distinct task-specific stores. | |||||||||
