{ "pk": 27792, "title": "A resource model of phonological working memory", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "The classic Baddeley and Hitch (1974) model divides working\nmemory into domain-specific subsystems and a shared, do-\nmain-general central executive, which plays a role in allocating\nresources to items stored in the subsystems. The nature of this\nresource—in particular, its quantization (discrete vs. continu-\nous) and the flexibility of its allocation—has been studied ex-\ntensively in the visual domain, with evidence from experiments\nusing continuous response measures providing support for\nmodels with flexibly and continuously divisible resources. It\nremains unclear, however, whether similar mechanisms medi-\nate the division of resources in phonological working memory.\nIn this paper, we show that, despite representational differences\nbetween visual and auditory processing, continuous measures\ncan also be employed for studying phonological working\nmemory. Using such measures, we demonstrate that the prin-\nciples of resource division in visual and phonological pro-\ncessing are indeed similar, providing evidence for a domain-\ngeneral mechanism for allocating working memory resources.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Phonological working memory" }, { "word": "cognitive resources" }, { "word": "Central executive" }, { "word": "Domain-generality" }, { "word": "Resource models" }, { "word": "Slot models" } ], "section": "Publication-based-Talks", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5jv4d5xq", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Christopher", "middle_name": "R", "last_name": "Hepner", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "John Hopkins", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Nazbanou", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Nozari", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "John Hopkins", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2018-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/27792/galley/17432/download/" } ] }
