- Memory rehearsal
-
Memory rehearsal is a term for the role of repetition in the retention of memories, e.g., working memory rehearsal tasks.
In the Baddeley's model of working memory, this ability comprises a central executive and two buffers - the phonological loop and the visuo—spatial sketch pad. Both storage buffers are characterized by passive storage and rehearsal information. This rehearsal function has been associated with frontal networks such as the Broca's area (Garon, Bryson and Smith, 2008).
