This volume offers a collection of the theoretical perspectives that represent the cutting edge of theorizing in the area of short-term memory. The contributors, all of whom have long-standing international reputations in this area, have provided overviews of models of short-term memory that are driving current research and thinking in the area, with particular emphasis placed on the detailed description of the functioning of the models. The volume represents both the computational approaches that are having a wide impact on short-term memory research (chapters by Brown & Hulme, Hitch & Burgess, Houghton, Hartley & Glasspool, Murdock, and Schweikert, Hayt, Hersberger & Geuntert) and theories expressed in more traditional verbal form (chapters by Baddeley, Gathercole & Martin, Frankish, and Jones, Beaman & Macken). Models represented in the volume also cover both developmental (Cowan & Kail) and Neuropsychological perspectives (Martin & Lesch) on short-term memory.
This book will appeal both to active researchers in the area of memory, to graduate students, and to academics who wish to update their knowledge of this highly active and fast-developing area of research and theory. Although the book is primarily designed for this advanced study market, the lucid style adopted by the contributors in providing overviews of their models of short-term memory will also appeal to final-year undergraduate students studying this area.
"Models of Short-Term Memory" is unique in bringing together many of the currently influential perspectives on short-term memory, representing several fundamentally different approaches to the area, in a single volume. At present, no other book can offer a comparable range of current theories in this important area of cognition.
