Attention and Working Memory
Attentional Control
→ Selective Attention
→ Inhibitory Control
→ Related to Central Executive (Working Memory)
→ Failure leads to Inattentional Blindness
Cognitive Control
→ Cognitive Flexibility
→ Inhibitory Control
→ Managed by Central Executive
Limited Capacity
→ Explains constraints in Working Memory
→ Influences Selective Attention
→ Tied to Short-Term Memory limits
Selective Attention
→ Studied using Dichotic Listening
→ Involved in Shadowing Tasks
→ Failure leads to Inattentional Blindness
Dichotic Listening
→ Used to test Selective Attention
→ Shadowing Task performed here
Inattentional Blindness
→ Demonstrates failures in Attentional Control
→ Linked to cognitive load on Working Memory
Subliminal Perception
→ Bypasses Selective Attention
→ Related to Sensory Memory and Automatic Processing
Working Memory
→ Composed of:
Central Executive
→ Controls Attention (Chapter 3)
→ Coordinates Helper Systems
Phonological Loop
→ Processes Sound-Based Info
→ Explains Phonological Similarity Effect
→ Explains Word-Length Effect
Visuospatial Sketchpad
→ Processes Visual-Spatial Info
Episodic Buffer
→ Combines Info from other systems into Chunks
→ Holds Chunks
→ Limited by Word-Length Effect & Phonological Similarity
→ Interfaces with:
Short-Term Memory
Long-Term Memory
Short-Term Memory
→ Limited Duration and Capacity
→ Often holds Chunks
→ Influenced by Attention and Inhibition
Long-Term Memory
→ Enduring Info Storage
→ Not capacity-limited like STM or Working Memory
→ Works with Episodic Buffer for Integration
Sensory Memory
→ First Stage before Attention or STM
→ Related to Subliminal Perception
