Graham Hitch

Graham Hitch is a psychologist known for his research on working memory—the brain's ability to hold and manipulate information over short periods. He helped develop influential models explaining how we process and manage multiple pieces of information at once, such as solving problems or following instructions. His work has improved understanding of cognitive functions and contributed to educational strategies, especially in areas like learning disabilities and mental workload. Essentially, Hitch’s studies help us understand how the brain manages everyday tasks requiring short-term storage and quick mental operations.
