Detailed explanation-1: -Baddeley and Hitch (1974) developed the Working Memory Model (WMM), which focuses specifically on the workings of short-term memory (STM).
Detailed explanation-2: -Baddeley’s model argues that working memory is like a multi-part system, and each system is responsible for a different function. Each part is only able to processes so much and the components of this system, according to Baddeley, function more or less independently of one another.
Detailed explanation-3: -Atkinson and Shiffrin believed that once information enters the brain, it must be either stored or maintained and that the information which is stored goes into three distinct memory systems: the sensory register, short-term memory, and long-term memory.
Detailed explanation-4: -Baddeley and Hitch (1974) set out to test the hypothesis that the short-term store also functioned as a working memory. They did so by requiring participants to perform reasoning, comprehension or learning tasks at the same time as they were holding in STM between 0 and 8 digits for immediate recall.
