Intelligence Scales” (WAIS Wechsler, 2008), include the test in order to assess this facet of Notion, several psychological test batteries, such as the “Wechsler Adult Prevalent approach to assess working memory capacity (see Ramsay & Reynolds, 1995). Neuropsychology, the “digit span backwards” task (DSB) remains the Paradigms have been developed to test for inter-individual differences. Since working memory is partially defined by its limited capacity ( Bireta et al, 2010), several Visuospatial sketchpad and a phonological loop, responsible for visual and verbal Memory describes the temporary storage and manipulation of information, as necessaryįor complex cognitive tasks like reasoning or language comprehension ( Baddeley, 2000). Most influential working memory models in the last century. The term working memory has been shaped through the work of Baddeley and Hitch (1974) who proposed one of the Strategy rather than the presentation modality and suggest that the DSB measuresĭifferent working aspects than commonly used experimental working memory That the processing modality is determined by the preference for a cognitive Weakly with the complex span task in all conditions (all Relevant digits were presented optically. Visualizers performed better than verbalizers in the dual task Span task, based on the Simultaneous Storage and Processing Further, the relationship between the DSB and a complex Present study was conducted to examine the use of visual and verbal cognitive Yet, it remains unclear how the task is solved cognitively.

The “digit span backwards” (DSB) is the mostĬommonly used test in clinical neuropsychology to assess working memoryĬapacity.
