Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This groundbreaking book explains Cowan’s theoretical proposal about working memory capacity, and compares it to competing perspectives. The book assesses memory hypotheses and examines explanations of why capacity limits occur, and concludes with a discussion of the practical importance of capacity limits in daily life.
