recent resch shifted toward &#160;repres -based emphasis... what is the format and structure of remembered info.

&#160;

what is the nature of the memory reps?

&#160;

how do we model memory systems/ processes?

&#160;

STM = WM = working memory

&#160;

Wm James had same characterization in 1890.

&#160;

active WM has extremely limited capacity of only a few items &#160;(a la Miller 56)

&#160;

generalizes ove &#160;vision/ auditory/ assocs etc.

&#160;

But... what is the nature of the stored reps?

&#160;
