Time constraints and resource sharing in adults' working memory spans.
This article presents a new model that accounts for working memory spans in adults, the time-based resource-sharing model. The model assumes that both components (i.e., processing and maintenance) of the main working memory tasks require attention and that memory traces decay as soon as attention is switched away. Because memory retrievals are constrained by a central bottleneck and thus totall...
متن کاملResource-sharing in multiple-component working memory
Working memory research often focuses on measuring the capacity of the system and how it relates to other cognitive abilities. However, research into the structure of working memory is less concerned with an overall capacity measure but rather with the intricacies of underlying components and their contribution to different tasks. A number of models of working memory structure have been propose...
متن کاملThe time-based resource-sharing model of working memory
Since Baddeley and Hitch's (1974) seminal proposal to distinguish between short-term and working memory, several influential models and theories have been put forward to account for the structure and functioning of a working memory thought of as the core system of cognition devoted to the maintenance and processing of relevant information. As Engle and Oransky (1999) suggested, deas about tempo...
متن کاملThe effect of verbal and visuospatial working memory spans on collocation processing in learners of English
Much interest has recently been directed toward the knowledge of collocations in the field of second language learning since they have been asserted to improve fluency. The current study was intended to examine the effect of verbal and visuospatial working memory spans on the processing of collocations using a Self-Pace Reading Task (SPRT) and relevant working memory tasks. To this end, partici...
متن کاملMathematical transcription of the 'time-based resource sharing' theory of working memory.
The time-based resource sharing (TBRS) model is a prominent model of working memory that is both predictive and simple. TBRS is a mainstream decay-based model and the most susceptible to competition with interference-based models. A connectionist implementation of TBRS, TBRS*, has recently been developed. However, TBRS* is an enriched version of TBRS, making it difficult to test general charact...
