Psy 402 Topic 8 DQ 1 How does working memory relate to learning and intelligence? Class, Working memory is necessary for learning and intelligence. It is the maintenance that holds information as it is linking to long term memory. Working memory is actively making connections between long term memory and perceptual information (Gazzaniga, Ivry, Mangun, 2019).This is possible because of the prefrontal cortex, working memory is what is connecting the prefrontal cortex’s current perception and long term memories that are relevant to a certain task or goal in learning (Gazzaniga, Ivry, Mangun, 2019). Working memory is also the process that holds a visual stimulus in our mind as we are actively trying to memorize or learn a new thing. (Gazzaniga, Ivry, Mangun, 2019). Actively learning and long term memory would not be possible or available to us with out the process of working memory. Thank you for reading! Nicole Patchin
