As Baddeley and other researchers did experiments to test the working memory model, they noted that the model couldn’t
explain some results.The episodic buffer is basically a “backup” store that communicates with both LTM and the components of working memory. An important property of the episodic buffer that helps explain the better-than-expected performance on some tasks is that it can hold information longer and has greater capacity than the phonological loop or visuospatial sketch pad
d. What is long – term memory?
