1.1. Leiberman argues that Visuo-Spatial Sketchpad should be separate
1.1.1. Blind People
1.2. KF Case Study
1.3. Dual Task Studies
1.3.1. Baddeley & Hitch
2. Application
2.1. Explains memory function in patients with impairments
2.2. Applied to education
2.2.1. Help support those with poor WM
3. Problems
3.1. Central Executive
3.1.1. Very little research evidence
3.1.1.1. Hard to investigate
3.2. Does not explain changes in processing ability that occur as the result of time/practicee
4. Issues

5.2. Difficult to test theory
5.2.1. Lacks falsifiability
6. Information
6.1. Central Executive
6.1.1. Directs attention to tasks
