Description
Working Memory in Development explores how our ability to temporarily hold and process information develops across childhood. This comprehensive account draws on various theories of cognitive development, from Piaget's influential ideas to more recent approaches.
The authors examine the evolution of working memory, tracing its development from infancy through to childhood, and discuss their own theory, the Time-Based Resource-Sharing (TBRS) model. This framework provides a clear understanding of how working memory contributes to cognitive development.
