Which component of Baddeley's basic working memory model is involved in the task of pressing keys on a keypad in a clockwise pattern?
AVisuospatial sketchpad ✓ Correct
BBounded rationality
CPhonological loop
DMetacognition
Correct answer: (A) Visuospatial sketchpad — The visuospatial sketchpad is involved, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★The visuospatial sketchpad is involved, so that is the answer.
★This component handles visual and spatial information.
★Pressing keys in a clockwise pattern is a spatial task.
★The phonological loop instead handles verbal and sound material.
★Bounded rationality and metacognition are not memory-store components here.
★Hence the visuospatial sketchpad is correct.
