ABSTRACT
The working memory (WM) model of Baddeley and Hitch (1974) has proved hugely influential in neuropsychological and, more recently, neuroimaging investigations of working memory. In the present chapter, I aim to illustrate this influence via three distinctions made by the WM model: the distinction between 1) verbal and visuo-spatial information, 2) storage and rehearsal, and 3) maintenance and manipulation.
