Written by a truly international team of experts, it offers an authoritative review of the key areas of research and development in this field. Highlights of the second edition include: a new section on developmental memory disorders new chapters on frontal lobe deficits, confabulation and the neuropsychological basis of false memory discussion of research on animals and computational modelling a new chapter that overviews structural and functional imaging techniques.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
Alan Baddeley is Professor of Psychology at York University and one of the world's leading authorities on Human Memory. He is celebrated for devising the ground-breaking and highly influential working memory model with Graham Hitch in the early 1970s, a model which still proves valuable today in recognising the functions of short-term memory. He was awarded a CBE for his contributions to the study of memory, is a Fellow of the Royal Society, of the British Academy and of the Academy of Medical Sciences. In 2012 he was the recipient of the BPS Research Board's Lifetime Achievement Award recognising his outstanding record of personal achievements and significant contributions to the advancement of psychological knowledge.
