Whilst complex span tasks may require a domain-specific modality for coding and rehearsal of the material, the evidence suggests that all complex span tasks reflect a domain-general capacity (see Kane et al., 2004). The limited capacity of working memory both within and across domains means ...
Working memory capacity refers to the limited amount of information that can be held and processed in the mind at any given time. It is the ability to temporarily store and manipulate information, such as perceptions, memories, goals, numbers, words, and images, in the brain's neural activity...
The resulting model gives a description of how the wide range of newly noted summary effects arise within the wider systems of memory and perceptual processing.Jacob ZeppChad DubéJournal of Vision
Spatial and visual working memory also have limited capacity and the two can be dissociated. Visuospatial working memory predicts success in fields such as architecture and engineering. One model proposes that the sketchpad is divided into two components, a visual cache and a retrieval and rehearsal...

The filtering efficiency is the mechanism to inhibit irrelevant items from entering visual working memory, studies have shown that it can be measured through working memory capacity or representation precision. The neural processes underli
visual working memory is particularly vulnerable to aging (Johnson et al.,2010; Logie & Maylor,2009). Interventions aimed at enhancing visual working memory capacity could potentially have a greater impact on older adults and help to reveal mechanisms underlying cognitive aging. Therefore, the present...
Working memory capacity had a significant influence only in the disfluency condition: The higher the working memory capacity, the better the retention and comprehension performance in the disfluency condition. No effects were found with respect to transfer or cognitive load. Thus, the role of ...
and long-term recall of a problem-solving discussion (Baker et al., 2020). While interesting, there is much more work to be done before aspects of close relationships can be attributed to working memory capacity and vice-versa. It is clear, however, that addiction can cause deficits in wor...
