Basis
Information Processing
According to the standard information-processing model for
mental development, the minds machinery includes attention
mechanisms for bringing information in, working memory for
actively manipulating information, and long-term memory for
passively holding information so that it can be used in the
future.
Developmental psychologists who adopt the informationprocessing perspective account for mental development in terms
of maturational changes in basic components of a childs mind.
The theory is based on the idea that humans process the
information they receive, rather than merely responding to
stimuli.
This perspective equates the mind to a computer, which is
responsible for analyzing information from the environment.
