When Working Memory May Be Just Working, not Memory

open access: yesPsychological Review, 2022
The N-back task is often considered to be a canonical example of a task that relies on working memory (WM), requiring both maintenance of representations of previously-presented stimuli and also processing of these representations. In particular, the set-size effect in this task (e.g., poorer performance on 3-back than 2-back judgments), as in others ...

Abstract The term ‘working memory’ refers to the temporary storage of information in connection with the performance of other cognitive tasks such as reading, problemsolving or learning. It is here conceptualized as comprising a limited-capacity central processor, the central executive, which employs a number of subsidiary slave ...
