Short-term or working memory - the capacity to hold and manipulate
information mentally over brief periods of time - plays an
important role in supporting a wide range of everyday activities,
particularly in childhood. Children with weak working memory skills
often struggle in key areas of learning and, given its impact on
cognitive abilities, the identification of working memory
impairments is a priority for those who work with children with
learning disabilities. Working Memory and Neurodevelopmental
Disorders supports clinical assessment and management of working
memory deficits by summarising the current theoretical
understanding and methods of assessment of working memory. It
outlines the working memory profiles of individuals with a range of
neurodevelopmental disorders (including Down's syndrome, Williams
syndrome, Specific Language Impairment, and ADHD), and identifies
useful means of alleviating the anticipated learning difficulties
of children with deficits of working memory. This comprehensive and
informative text will appeal to academics and researchers in
cognitive psychology, neuropsychology and developmental psychology,
and will be useful reading for students in these areas. Educational
psychologists will also find this a useful text, as it covers the
role of working memory in learning difficulties specific to the
classroom.
