GOAL: to share a substantial memory of your life while working on the "writing process"

Working memory is a psychological space in which information is stored and processed in the brain, making it possible to perform advanced tasks such as reasoning and learning. In this context, it is this process that you can convert words into sentences and paragraphs, but the resources of working memory are limited.

^ Working memory is the type of memory that individuals use for active information processing, such as reading and writing articles in the encyclopedia. Working memory is limited in capacity and functions as an information buffer as well as a computer's data buffer that enables manipulation of information for understanding, decision making, and behavior guidance.

George Miller and Garant, one of the founders of cognitive psychology, and Pribram made the term working memory. Working memory is a cognitive system that stores and processes information. This is a way for thinking to temporarily interpret and save information with tasks that require reasoning and thinking. Think of it as a very sticky note or task list for the brain, essentially processed memory. It is different from short-term memory. Not only can it store information but also can process information.

Concept In working memory tasks, it is usual to require participants to store information during processing of information, but this is a necessary task when mentally doubling. For example, suppose you first multiply 17 by 10 to 170. Next, you need to store the product in memory. Multiply by 2 × 17 it will be 34. Next, you need to add 170 and 34 to solve the problem. In order to successfully execute "Operation Span Task", it is necessary to hold (store) information (that is, words) during processing (that is, during execution of arithmetic operation). This ability is related to the performance of many important cognitive tasks. In fact, the performance of working memory tasks (such as operational span tasks) is highly correlated with high level tasks such as reading comprehension and fluid intelligence (Engle, 2002, current direction of psychology).
