工作记忆

工作記憶（英語：Working memory）是一種記憶容量有限的認知系統，被用以暫時保存資訊。^[1]工作記憶對於推理以及指導決策和行為有重要影響。^[2]^[3] 工作記憶通常與短期記憶同義使用，但一些理論家認為兩種形式的記憶是不同的，假設工作記憶允許對存儲的資訊進行操作，而短期記憶僅指資訊的短期存儲。^[2]^[4]工作記憶是認知心理學、神經心理學和神經科學的核心理論概念。

工作記憶是記憶的一部分。它會在短時間內存儲記錄的資訊，以便將此資訊包含在長期記憶中或與之進行比較。這個術語和理解是由Alan Baddeley於1968年提出的。

工作記憶由三個子結構組成：語音循環、視覺空間寫生板和中央執行系統^[5]（參見巴德利工作記憶模型）。

然而，記憶容量被限制在大約七個資訊單位/分塊（參見米勒數）。
