Hi everyone!
I practiced this question for psychology memory topic, and wanted to know if anyone would kindly mark it and give me feedback, I’m a private candidate so this would be very helpful and much appreciated ☺️☺️
Briefly evaluate the working memory model (4)
P: A limitation of the WMM is that much of its supporting evidence comes from artificial dual-task experiments.
E: This is supported by studies that use highly controlled tasks such as digit-span recall and simple verbal-reasoning questions.
E: These tasks lack meaningful, everyday relevance and oversimplify how memory is used in real situations, making them less representative of real cognitive demands.
E: This is a limitation because findings from such artificial tasks may not generalise to how working memory operates outside the lab.
L: This decreases the ecological validity of the WMM and reduces confidence in how accurately it reflects real-life memory functioning.
