几个著名的工作记忆表现的神经心理学测试，迄今为止被认为是无关的，实际上有一个共同的结构，在这里被称为自我排序选择范式。例子包括主题排序指向任务，Corsi块测试的变体，多位置搜索任务和字母背诵任务。的定义功能的范例进行了概述。描述了一个用于评估和检验自我排序选择范式中工作记忆容量假设的统计框架。为了使神经心理学家进行快速的统计分析的工作记忆的表现，一个计算机程序，沿着详细的实际例子，三个有用的统计程序，为单一的情况下，以组为基础的分析。该程序可以通过互联网在线访问和执行。
Several well-known neuropsychological tests of working memory performance, hitherto thought to be unrelated, in fact share a common structure termed here the self-ordered selection paradigm. Examples include the subject-ordered pointing task, variants of the Corsi blocks test, the multiple-location search task, and the letter-recitation task. The defining features of the paradigm are outlined. A statistical framework for assessing and testing hypotheses about working memory capacity in the self-ordered selection paradigm is described. To enable neuropsychologists to conduct a rapid statistical analysis of working memory performance, a computer program is presented along with detailed practical examples of three useful statistical procedures for both single-case and group-based analysis. The program may be accessed and executed online over the Internet.
