Describe the similarities and differences between the short-term store in the stores model and the working memory in the network model

What will be an ideal response?


Both short-term memory and working memory consist of information that a person is consciously processing at any given time. Working memory differs from short-term memory because the information is not moving from one storage area to another; it is simply available. Another difference is that the working memory has components involved in processing verbal information, processing auditory information, and allocating and monitoring cognitive resources.
