Comment la répétition articulatoire et le rafraichissement attentionnel interagissent avec la similarité phonologique ?
Within Time-Based Resource-Sharing model (Barrouillet et al., 2004), working memory capacity depends on the amount of attention available to maintain information. The aim of this study was to investigate the interplay of attentional refreshing and articulatory rehearsal (Baddeley, 1986). The phonological similarity effect was investigated in a complex span paradigm using lists of similar or dissimilar words to remember. In Experiment 1, the amount of attention available was manipulated by the attentional demand of the concurrent processing task (Simple Reaction Task vs Choice Reaction Task), and in Experiment 2 by varying the pace of stimulus presentation in the CRT. Moreover, in Experiment…
Adaptive Choice in Strategies of Maintenance in Verbal Working Memory
International audience; Because both articulatory rehearsal and attentional refreshing aid the maintenance of verbal information at the short term, the present study evaluated the adaptive use of these mechanisms, using a complex span paradigm. In Experiment 1, phonological similarity of memory-list words and attentional demand of concurrent processing were manipulated. As was predicted, a phonological similarity effect (PSE) appeared only when the concurrent task was attention demanding, thus impairing the use of refreshing and encouraging rehearsal. To verify that PSE indicates the use of rehearsal, participants were instructed to use one of the two mechanisms in Experiments 2 and 3. In a…
