Working memory and procedural memory in Specific Learning and Language Difficulties: some findings
Download
Abstract
This paper describes the relationships between working and procedural memory deficits with specific learning disabilities and specific language impairment. Working memory is a system comprising multiple components whose coordinated activity provides the capacity for the temporary storage and manipulation of information in a variety of domains. Long term procedural memory is a system particularly important for acquiring and performing skills involving sequences of different types (motor and cognitive). Specific language impairments and specific learning disabilities are closely associated to selective deficits in both memory systems. The implications of these findings for educational practice and rehabilitation are considered.
