Preferred term

phonological store  

Definition

  • In Baddeley's model of working memory, the phonological store is a component of the phonological loop. It is responsible for the temporary storage of verbal information in a phonological form. Without mental refreshing, the traces in the phonological store deteriorate very quickly. Phonological storage is automatic and direct when verbal material is presented orally. The identification of the phonological store is based on the phonological similarity effect and the irrelevant speech effect.
