Practitioner Review: Short‐term and working memory impairments in neurodevelopmental disorders: diagnosis and remedial support
Open accessAbstract
Background: This article provides an introduction to current models of working and short‐term memory, their links with learning, and diagnosis of impairments. The memory impairments associated with a range of neurodevelopmental disorders (Down's syndrome, Williams syndrome, Specific Language Impairment, and attentional deficits) are discussed. Methods: Methods of alleviating the adverse consequences of working and short‐term memory impairments for learning are identified. Conclusion: Impairments of short‐term and working memory are associated with learning difficulties that can be substantial, and that can be minimised by appropriate methods of remedial support.

“The final element of the model, the episodic buffer (Baddeley, 2000), is responsible for the integration of information from different components of both working memory and long-term memory in multi-dimensional representations.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
